Today is my last day at Kunsan. I had my “final-out” appointment this morning, so I’m officially relieved from duty with the 8th Fighter Wing. It’s a bitter-sweet feeling leaving. On the one hand, I’ll be reunited with my wife and family, but on the other hand, I’m leaving behind a family here.
The SNCOs at the Korean Clinic gave me a little send-off today; a small luncheon at the Korean Garden Restaurant. We talked about the past year and my feelings about leaving. They had some nice words and gave me a bottle of Korean wine to remind me of my stay here. Afterward we shared some coffee in their office and exchanged email addresses. I’m looking forward to keeping in touch with my Korean friends.
What else? FLORIDA WON THE NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP!!!!! What a great day! I was taking the new “Med Dawg” Chief around the base yesterday and while he did his inprocessing thing, I was watching the game. Everyone had it on. I was able to watch the entire game this way. I would’ve preferred stretching out in my favorite chair with a beer in hand, but the time difference in Korea means most of these games take place at breakfast time. So, coffee in hand I watch football…Not for too much longer, though!
