AF Day 044

FOB Smart at 1600

I have two more meetings to go to and my workday will be complete. I met with a local contractor again today and will again tomorrow for the third day in a row. The project we are reviewing is a redesign. The contractor was the original contractor from over a year ago, but the engineering team has now rotated three times during the life of this infill project. By the way, the original project, built by the USSR during their stay here 31+ years ago, was demolished save for the concrete slab. Therefore, needless to say, the project variables and dynamics have changed a bit. It can be challenging in that we need to achieve completion, while doing so with our English-Pashto language differences, after a number of personnel changes over the last 12+ months. I love this work, man.

I spoke with K&K this morning, as well as my father. My son sounded very excited to hear that his father was on the phone wanting to speak with him. I always want to speak with him and love doing so. I try to call my wife and son every morning and night, which is their every night and morning. Momma, you are next on the call list.

I last saw K&K on May 8 at 0630; I miss them; they miss me; we all miss each other... LOL

143, K&K.

Good night and good day.
