So there I was in the post office trying to send off some lickies and chewies to a Combat Brother of mine. I take my stuff the counter and Im filling out the Customs form like I am being interrogated for having Semtex filled Oreos in the box (sarcasm) and the lady behind the counter is trying to tell me there had to be more the address than what I posted. I kindly tell her that it isnt a mistake and that is the correct addy. She goes on this diatribe on how her nephew was in Kandahar for 9 months and that there was more to his address. I kindly let her know that there are actually Combat personnel throughout Afghanistan that do not have the privilege of Salsa night every Thursday and a Call of Duty tournament on a daily basis, that there are real Soldiers conducting Combat Missions and Duties and that the address is correct..... All I got was silence and the appropriate billing in order to pay and leave. Let it be known I hate and despise anyone who gets Stationed at a major Fob or peace keeping AO, who does NOT do a damn thing (leave the wire in a combat area) , claiming they are battle hardened while sipping on their smoothies and complaining about how hard they had it during their so-called deployment. Worst part of my last deployment was being injured and unable to join my Brothers who were outside the wire conducting Combat Operations. It gnawed at me to the bone watching POGs running around like it was a Military Holiday on a daily basis!!!! .........End of rant, carry on!
