Default Retirement Bound

Well I got my early "Christmas" present today. I found out that I did not get selected to E-8. Which means I will retire in April 2007 vice late 2009. (If I would have got promoted I would have had to do 2 more years.)Yay!! The promotion would have been nice, but after 20 years in the Marines its time to live a some what normal life and not be away from the family.

Hey AJ,
Get ready to due some hunting when I get back there. (should be early Feb.)
I will not be moving and will have plenty of time to do some swinging.

I wish everyone a Very Merry Christmas, and a Happy New Years!!

Gunny

Well Gunny,
Sorry about the promotion but after twenty yrs it is now time for family. Sorry to hear you won't be coming to GA, it would have been a good chance for you to become a member of the southern force of this great nation. How about if I just make you a member anyway. I am just glad to have a few good men such as yourself protecting my family for what I truly believe in most "FREEDOM". My hat is off to you.

Thanks for the good words... Just because Iam not coming your way to stay doesn't mean that maybe we could still get together and do some hunting after I get back. Its not that far from NC, to GA. Maybe plan a Saturday or Sunday hunt sometime??? Have a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Years!! banner
