The end of a lie...

I have a little bit of truth to share with you the loyal members of the TRS.

When I sent out my address a few months ago I was under the impression that I was being promoted the next day. It didn’t happen and I didn’t tell anyone, many members of my family and numbered members of the TRS were not aware. The military screwed up my paperwork. I didn’t want to bother anyone with that particular issue, because I figured you had enough to worry about without thinking about the military giving me the big hard one up my six. This is terribly cliché however; I lied to make things easier on you. That sucks, I know, I should have told you the truth.

By the by I was promoted yesterday- my promotion was not back-dated to January first like it should have been, but that is the next fight that I face and that is a small matter.

I hope things are going well at home and I can’t wait to be home this summer. In addition to being promoted in rank I was also promoted in duty position as I now have command of my own humvee. It did happen because somebody screwed up but there were other guys that could have been given the command (because they outrank me) so in that I am pleased.

So there it is charade over, I will be writing a little bit about my involvement in the turmoil of last week tomorrow, so look for that soon.

Until then…

Peace and Love- Roadshow 6
