You've got good reason to be proud. Hope she stays safe, and tell her, "thanks".

She's already asked for factory magazines for her M9 (I just got 5 more mags and some recoil springs for her). ...and she is wearing the nomex gloves I sent her. Oh yea, Tinkerbell with a machinegun. She shoots good with my Beretta 92 and CX4. I guess she gets them when she gets back. Before she left, I took her to the range and we fired over 700 rounds of 9mm (mostly), 45ACP, and 5.56mm. Had her shoot at paper plates at different ranges (out to 60 yards). Put a hurt'n on'em. Got an Insight 552 for her when she wants it for her M4.
Daddy's little girl! (Her Mom is gonna freak for sure!  )Yes, proud.

The RoPers are really chauvinistic when it comes to women, they regard them as property and a lower form of life. But when you're looking down the barrel of a M16, your opinions change very quickly.

The Emperor will stop by to personally congratulate your daughter's TIE fighter squadron. Rebel activity has been effectively suppressed in their sector.

So what up with an Army unit attached to MAG-16? Are the Marines off learning about Ospreys? Normally they would be flying CH-46s.

must be nice for her to have the proper equipment to do her job (M9 and M4). We don't get any M4s even for people who need them
Thank her for serving. We need people like her over here. |

Actually, she's was born in Frankfurt, Germany but she loves the Virginia area. She spent her first hitch in the Navy on the USS Turman as an AE, so technically this is her second trip to Iraq. This is her first on the ground however. She loves helicopters and wants to fly one day.

I showed this thread to my Brother In Law (because he was on the Truman) and he said he was indeed stationed with your daughter, that he knows her, knew she joined the Army and that he wishes her well and wants her to stay safe over there. |

Dad and I met the Truman when they came back a couple of years ago. Dad and I got the tour of the ship (4 hours) worth before they shipped out too. Dad was piped aboard and they let me go too (SFC). Both of us retired Army. Dad is a retired O6 so he got "the treatment". The Truman is quite a hard piece of equipment. I mean hard. For those that have never been aboard such a craft, take the tour. You will not regret the experience. I sent my daughter's picture to the CMC on the Truman. Everyone on board was nice even when putting up with ORF (old retired farts). |
