Not that it makes any difference; if you got hit with it you got it, but I am curious.
2. Look at the bright side: GH = Beale? Much better than Clovis (with a pred).
1. I'm on my second tour. Did a 3 year tour in C-21s and then got to C-5s in May 07. I am not an IP (even after almost 3 years in Fred) and there are plenty of folks that are not IPs and did not get chosen for this "choice" deal.
2. SO TRUE!!! I actually had a choice and it was a no brainer
