crazy 2 weeks

Well the last 2 weeks have been crazy.  First my wife had to be admitted to the hospital for a leg infection.  She ended up having to stay there for almost two whole weeks.  Thanks very much to my parents for quickly making a trip to New York to take care of the kids.  Also thanks to all the support that my wife got from all of her army friends/family.  They did a great job (visiting her in the hospital, taking inital care of the kids, cooking meals, and shoveling snow).  Also thanks for her mom for making the trip up tomorrow to continue to let her get much needed rest.  All of that put my mind to rest knowing that everything was taken care of.
All is still well here at FOB  Shank.  The "Deathstalkers" added 1 more kill to the wall.  It was a high value person who was on the "kill or capture" list.  He was spotted out in the middle of nowhere and since nobody was there to capture him he was killed!  I guess that is one list you dont want to be on.  The weather overall has still been good for flying.  We also gave 2 checkrides that made 2 more Pilot-in-Commands for us.  That will be a big help for scheduling since we have now been sending pilots back on 2 weeks leave.
