Checking in from Afghanistan

THANK you for your service!! My nephew just returned from Afghanistan in December. It is beautiful in it's own way. Stay safe and good luck to you! We will be praying for your safety and quick return! Godspeed Jinx!

A positive is that it looks like you're on a star wars planet.

Thank you for your service.

Ha, it kinda does. I do need a lightsaber though...

I'm a nurse and getting in with the Canadian Forces is something that I'm seriously considering. Serving my country while doing what I love would be such an honour.

Kudos to you for putting yourself out there and in harms way for your troops

How much do you get to actually practice on a daily basis?

For the folks in to this kind of thing... my boomstick.

Not much of a gear guy myself as I've always found what the Army issues to suffice for all of my needs. How much longer now? You said home in summer and it is now spring... soon I hope!

I am a huge gear nerd!

I am looking at August-ish.

Better pic of my stick and another range shot. We are not really allowed to take pics during traumas, and I doubt most of you would want to see that kind of stuff anyways. So you get the downtime pics

Actually I'm kinda weird and I'd enjoy that lol. I saw a video of a bunch of guys flying in, jumping off a helicopter, rescuing a guy and bringing him back to the hospital. I *think* it was the navy nurse guys like you, but idk. (I'm not a military guy so it could have been someone else, idk). It was really cool though. Doctors in an ER think they have it rough but if you look at stuff like that it doesn't even compare. "Ohhh you're having trouble finding a vein for an IV...?" "Try doing it in these conditions!" LOL
