I 2nd that Ernie
Max, its so good of you to update us.
Im glad to hear the eye surgery went well and that you no longer require glasses.
That must feel so amazing for you?
We have thought of you often during our chats Max. Hoping that all is going well wherever you are. I wasnt sure if you were a Lieutenant yet or not LOL
Im sorry you didnt quite get the posts you were after, but hey? Youre gonna be with friends at Ft Riley? So it's all good. It'll be more fun for you?
Hope you have a great time partying for your 100th night. It sounds like it will be fun.
We're all really proud of you Max.
Way to go buddy!

: Hey all,
: Max, I am a little late getting back to you
: but it is good to get this update. It must
: be a little exciting to have just a few more
: months to go and then the new LT! We are
: happy for you and proud of you certainly.
: Keep up the good work! Ernie...
:
: Sorry I've been away so long... been pretty
: intense here. I got PRK eye surgery
: immediately after Christmas break, so I
: couldnt see for a while, and it's taken me
: until now to get caught back up... so I
: appoligize for my absense... But the good
: news is no more glasses!
:
: In other news, Post Night was a week ago. It
: all goes by class rank, so the top guy in
: the branch gets his choice of the available
: posts, and then so on down the list... I was
: 8/103 for Armor, so not too bad... I ended
: up choosing Ft Riley, KS... not the most
: glamorous of posts (my other top choices
: were Ft Carson, CO; Germany; Ft Lewis, WA;
: Hawaii), but a bunch of my friends (2 armor
: guys, 1 engineer, and 1 MP) are all going
: there, so it'll be nice to go with guys I
: know. Plus, it's relatively close to home
: (~7 hours to drive) so thats not bad either.
: I'll be with the 1st Infantry Division (Big
: Red One!). We'll get our Brigade assignments
: in April I think... I'm hoping for one of
: recon Cavalry squadrons in one of the heavy
: brigades there (either 1st or 2nd Brigade),
: so we'll see...
:
: Other than that, not much new... same old
: here... getting pretty sick of it, cant wait
: to get out. 107 more days...
:
: Next weekend is 100th Night for us, so the
: girlfriend is coming up for that; there's a
: big banquet and ball, so that'll be fun...
:
: Well that's about it from me. Hope all is
: well with you all...
:
: Happy Valentine's Day!
