Bug Junior is being moved to Vilseck, Germany as part of the Stryker Cavalry Brigade that will deploy to Afghanistan for a year. He will go to Vilseck in April, then on to Afghanistan shortly thereafter. He will then go back to Vilseck and serve the remaining year of his Army career unless of course he decides to re-enlist.
As many of you know, he is a Combat Medic, so Bug Sr is always worried when he deploys. He has gained a tremendous amount of experience while in Ft Campbell. He has worked in the hospital and supervised several soldiers while there. He has also made it to E-5 which from what I understand is pretty good for a kid that will turn 22 tomorrow.
Your prayers have always been greatly appreciated. I don't care to state that I am actually allot more worried about this deployment than I was Iraq, even though I know he saw a whole lot of bad in Iraq. Afghanistan is a different animal...unlimited places to hide and ambush.
My thoughts and prayers are with all of our military daily, even the ones that don't like Dale Earnhardt Jr (winking at Bobby, LOL).
Anyway, he is actually pumped about serving in the field again...I reckon that is a good thing...
