I read that Lynus is leaving tomorrow. I'm not sure when treeman is leaving, but I just wanted to express my thanks. Most of the time, it takes a special kind of person to join the military, and admittedly, I'm not that kind of person, so I respect both of you tremendously. I also have no doubt that treeman could find bin Laden in 34 minutes. I hope you all have internet access, and won't be strangers (especially you treeman, I'm still going to read that book, but after reading the foreward at Barnes and Noble, I ain't payin' for it! ). Good luck.
Great post, Rocketman95! I'll second that. As Gephardt (sp?) said after the State of the Union: "...hunt them down!" Godspeed fellas!
Good luck! You guys make us proud to be Americans, and keep the freedom that we have, whether it be to assembly, speech, religion and the pursuit of happiness. We owe all of you a debt of gratitude that can never be repaid. Keep in Touch! I'm going to be bored on this forum without Treeman to argue with!
I've said on several occassions that I've hate war and I hate the glorification of it, but I have nothing but compassion and respect for anyone that has to fight in one. I know I doubt I have the guts to do it which makes me respect you guys more. treeman and Lynus, Whatever we may have disagreed on in regards to this war, how it's being handled, or how you should feel about it, I can't help but thank you guys for doing what you're doing. Good luck, kick some ass, and do a good job; I'll be praying for you.
Absolutetly. You both rock, Lynus and treeman! I hope everything works out well for you, and you're happy with your decisions.
Take care. Don't eyeball the drill instructors, don't smile, don't keep food or contraband in your locker, and stay away from the salt peter. (phone cards and stamps are nice to bring, too)
Thanks for protecting my right to post stupid crap on this board everyday guys. Lynus, I hope you show your new buddies what good music is!
Lynus302: You have always been one of my favorite people here. I hope that I will continue to hear from you for the next couple of months. I know that you will do well in the Army, and like Freak said, I hope that your new "recruits" recognize your excellent musical tastes. I feel very honored to know someone like you (well at least through this BBS), and I know that you will defend this country's honor to the highest degree. Best wishes to you and your family. Take care. treeman: Although, I don't know you as well as I do Lynus, I can tell that you are a passionate person and that you will also defend this country's honor to the highest degree. I've enjoyed reading your debates with haven on the Middle East. Best of luck to you, too and let us know how you are doing.
Here's a thanks and a good-luck from a Canadian too. We're behind you, and we're with you too. "Canadian troops have already captured prisoners in Afghanistan" http://cbc.ca/cgi-bin/templates/view.cgi?category=Canada&story=/news/2002/01/29/jtf2020129 Keep your spirits up and your heads down.
DoD said what I would say better than I can so I'm just going to say ditto. Best of luck, and I hope you are safe always.
All of the posts on here have been wonderful. And I know I speak for Lynus (since I've been his girlfriend for the last year and 6 months) that he'll miss you all and this board a lot. No computers for a few months, but he'll be back! Treeman, I haven't got to know you too well, but Lynus sure thinks a lot of you, and I do too. I don't think you're leaving quite yet, but I'm proud of you and what you are doing. Good luck in the future. Lynus, I'll save my official goodbye to you later. But I am so proud of you and this decision. I think it's the most respectable and honorable thing you've done. Go give 'em hell and I'll see you on April 5! To everyone else, this board has a lot of meaning for me. Lynus talks about it all the time, and I have lurked for quite a while. It'll be my little way of being close to him while he's gone (even though he won't be posting). He values y'all and this board a lot and so do I. Thanks for all of your support! GO ARMY!
Just stay safe. We had enough trauma on this board for a few years after the mc mark scare. Incidentally, treeman, I'll really miss you on here. I've really enjoyed our discussions.
<b>treeman</b> and <b>Lynus302</b> You have given us the honor of keeping company with brave men and perhaps heroes. Do your job. Come back whole. We are proud and indebted to you.
