NickHolt Posted September 25, 2003 Report Share Posted September 25, 2003 John, I imagine the ComSec people keep a pretty close eye on what those airmen can do with their computers in the Middle East. I'll email his brother, Randy Lee, to see if he knows what our man Tim is up to these days. Nick Holt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Posted September 25, 2003 Report Share Posted September 25, 2003 Hello All! Things are going good out here. I stay pretty busy. Sorry I have not written in a while. Rumor is I will be up north in a few, but I will wait and see. If not, I will be home right before Christmas... hopefully!! Take care, Tim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lbeaver087 Posted September 25, 2003 Report Share Posted September 25, 2003 john they do race camels over in the gulf area Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Posted September 26, 2003 Report Share Posted September 26, 2003 Yep, they have a big camel race track about 10 miles from the base. They won't let us go to it because of the threat, but they race them like they race horses in the states. Camels are like cows in the US, you see them everywhere.

Nick Holt Hey Nick, no COMSEC for me. YUCK! :-) Once you get the stuff on you, you can't get it off! I take care of all of the NIPR/SIPR stuff, but no COMSEC. Airman... well I guess everyone in the Air Force are Airman, regardless of their true rank. I am sure that brings back some memories for you, right Nick? :-) Tim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NickHolt Posted September 26, 2003 Report Share Posted September 26, 2003 Tim, Glad to hear that you are doing OK over there. When I was in the AF it was during the Viet Nam conflict. Things were a bit different then. BTW, what is your rank? Nick Holt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Posted September 26, 2003 Report Share Posted September 26, 2003 E-5...E-6 next year, then I have about 3 years left. Then, civilian life here I come. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChuckLicata Posted September 26, 2003 Report Share Posted September 26, 2003 Tim, It's WONDERFUL to hear from you, dude! Please know that we have our full support...we appreciate that you're over there, and we appreciate all that you and everyone else who's over there do! Keep posting, and tell me..what kind of access do you have as far as communication? TV? Armed Forces radio? How do you get your news and info? Take care, dude..

Tim Posted September 26, 2003 Report Share Posted September 26, 2003 Thanks Chuck! Working in COMM, we pretty much have everything. I am typing this message on my laptop in my dorm room, so that should tell you something. I am in charge of all of the servers over here, so I don't really have any limits. We have satelite TV, so I get all of the news and sports back home. Not too bad, but I miss my family, which can be expected. That's the way it goes, sometimes you have to give more than you recieve. That's part of working for the world's best Armed Forces. There is a reason we are the best! Millions of people like me who are willing to sacrifice. I won't get on my soap box, but thanks for the praise! God bless all, Tim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
