Kandahar Airfield at 2020 - Monday
I flew to Kandahar Airfield this morning/afternoon. My first R&R is so close that I can taste it, y'all! My flight was scheduled to pick me up at 1315 today, but it arrived at 1120. Luckily, I was prepared and ready to fly when they showed early. I briefly Skyped with my dad tonight before my internet connection failed. It returned, but not before I left and had dinner... at T.G.I. Fridays! Yes, we have regular American amenities here at KAF.
Tomorrow is a slow workday for me, as I am not at work but I am still working... sounds nice, right. As one friend put it, I am living in the lap of USACE-provided luxury nowadays. Well, maybe not luxury, but it is refreshing to be here if only briefly before I begin my 25 travel hours on Wednesday evening.
I am so excited for cold beers, good Mexican food, and - of course - my family! I cannot wait to hug my wife and son on Thursday!
143, K&K.
Good night and good day.
