Hang in there scrible!
I did 20 in the AF, although never went to the mid east, I did go on a 1 year remote to korea 6 months after getting married.

Funny how I remember Tom Petty's "the waiting is the hardest part" playing while I went stir crazy. That song still brings memback and reminds me that all things shall pass eventually.

Thanks for being there and serving. Instant respect for you my friend.
