Me: so tom whats going on
Tom: we're leaving at 0630 tomorrow, doing a stop in england, then on to the UAE where we will be flying the u-2 plane at 80,000 feet each day from sun up to sundown over bagdad and afghanastan, providing pictures of enemy locations as well as anti aircraft battery sites, and providing a comunications link with troops on the ground.
Me: when will you be home?
Tom: I can't tell you that, it's classified
Wow!! That's all I can say! Pretty sure when he's coming home is less important than all the other info he gave. But as the saying goes only difference between enlisted and officers is they went to college to get smarter! LOL!
