I have been reactivated

Post by Captain tycho »

The Air Force has reactivated me. I could be shipping out in 2 days, depending on a variety of factors. I just got a phone call from the local office, relaying the orginal message. So far I have not been assigned to any particular squadron, although it is likely I will be assigned to my orginal command.

Thanks guys. Hopefully the war will be half over when I move over there.
But, I am looking forward to bombing runs... :)
Plus seeing some of my old buddies will be nice.

Ok guys, it's been confirmed I'm leaving day after tommorow.
I will board a plane in Toledo, join the 156th Signal squad, (since they're going to the same place I am), then fly to North Carolina. Once in Carolina, I'll board a ship and sail to the Gulf. I might not see any fightning, as the war might be over before I'm even there, and I could possibly just be held in reserve. Of course, then again I could be ordered to the frontlines once I get there, if things change.

PS: Just informed my family about it. They are of course worried, but wished me luck. I'm kinda tying up things at work right now (which really isn't online after the fire yet).
So, now I'm off to the local office to pick up some gear and inform my commanding officer that I am indeed coming. I wonder who my direct superior is though..
Wish me luck. :D

Strange that your going by ship. Military Sealift Command has little in the way of passenger capacity.
