But the Army said I have to go back to the US. I have a report date of 29 Sept but I am trying to get it pushed back to mid October to make KOTH and other family events. This is the worse day in a very long time. I will be heading to Ft. Belvoir Virginia.

The worse is that Dany is probably going to stay here in Germany. I have to stay 12 months before I can return overseas.

Oh... but on the other hand this means that you CAN return (officially)? Sure the 12 months are bad enough but at least there's the perspective of coming back.

As long as there is a job open fof me to apply for. Then they have to accept me. I had thought about going back in the Army for 7 more years. Dany said no.

Hey, man. Sorry to hear that you have to leave. Bitburg won't be the same without you. Hope you get back soon.

Thanks all. Is still have one slight chance of another job in Wiesbaden. I have to hold off on shipping anything till the last minute so that I do not spoil the chance. So I am praying every night.

BTW, Roy the USAR asked me today if I wanted to go to WAC, as a cook. I MIGHT take it.

Ah the military and their lack of disclosing certain facts. Currently I am on hold for the assignment as there seems to be something about the job that was not disclosed in th eoffer. I hope to have a answer this week.

Hey James,
Sorry to hear that you are leaving. Hope there is a brighter light ahead for you. Tell Dany I said hello. If you get out west (Tucson area) look me up. Tom (from Bitburg last year)
