April 24th, 2010 Easter Sunday

Spoke with Geoff this morning Easter Sunday. It had been about 8 days since we had last spoken, i was happy to hear his voice. They have been on "black out" for the past few days, so no communication. Also he is getting a new commander..he came.to visit so thet had to put on a "dog and pony show" making everything look nice. The guys were not too thrilled having to handle all of that. Geoff told me that they are the only ones out of all of 1-6 (which is alot of people) who dont have bee huts and are the only ones who have to burn there own poop. They are having easter dinner feast w ham and corn and s tr ffing and cranberry sauce. Geoff was really looking forward to that. It has been really hot there the past few days and their a.c went out (someone punched it). Now they're also the only tent w.o an ac. Hopefully it will be getting fixed soon. He has plenty of tuna and drink mixes there.."enough to.last through the rest of deployment" His Mid tour leave is stilll set for around sep20th, planning on spending time in Kentucky, Buffalo and New Hampshire and Maine. That is the plan for now at least!


I asked him if he needed anything and this was his list:
Instant oatmeal strawberry cream, maple brown sugar, etc
rockstars,
Canned goods like chicken, or anything else you can think of that would be good
Popcorn
Soups--Progresso soup bowls
Mimi moos Land o'Lake half half liquid creamers
