First, hey a screen shot of exactly what I said. Boy, I feel told now.
Second, if you're going to redact information to hide information for whatever reason, it'd probably be a good idea if you also hid the facebook's address bar, dipshit.

Is Ironhorse the word he blotted out in everything but the address bar?

Well I knew I would forget something..
The only way the two would be the same is if our new mission from our sister BDE is to wait in Kuwait for 7 months for flying home. Don't think it'll take 7 months to fly a BDE home.. Nice try though. This is the part where you say "my bad".
He specifically said that we have taken on a new mission and we don't know what it is and we could be there for a year but are planning on our normal schedule until told otherwise.
Lolgaxe could you edit post 6 to list the meaning of all acronyms in this thread?
you could start with LAIPS = Legitimate Answer In Post Six.

Sure. BDE is brigade, CDR is cadre, FRG is Family Readiness Group, CSM is Command Sergeant Major, OPSEC is Operational Security, IKR is I know, right, IDK is I don't know, AIAD is Alma Is A Douche, OPD is Officer Professional Development (I lol'd at that.), OPORD is Operation Orders, NCO is Non-Commissioned Officer, CHU is Container Housing Unit, And Alma is an officer that can't read orders.
I hope that helps a little.

Coming home Alma?!
One of my gaming buddies is in Iraq. He's been pretty dam bored. Supposedly he's coming home in 2 or 3 months.

What is a container housing unit, and why is it so redundant?
You know those giant trailers that trucks haul cargo in? Put one or two walls inside, doors on one side, window on the other, run some basic wiring and an air conditioner and boom. Housing for two to twelve people per unit. As far as redundancy ... well, making sense isn't a priority when it comes to military protocol and such.

Dunno if it's the same thing in army land, but over here at the Naval Shipyard we have things that are like a cross between a mobile home [that has been sub-divided] and a freight container.

Better than tents, just for the air conditioner. When it works. When it doesn't, then you're in an EZ Bake Oven.

All the people I personally care about (my brother-in-law, my cousin, my gaming buddies, etc) have already been home for some time. Though I'm glad everyone else is getting a chance.

Interesting. There's an architecture studio project in there somewhere.

Yes, Facebook notes really are the official military messages that come out.
I thought those FB pages were more for providing general information to the military members' families than anything. If the military really is telling you to rely on FB, I'm really glad that Ray retired from the military when he did.
And LAIPS

Oh yeah, I know. I just meant in improving upon it. You see those things a lot in architecture school.

They're "civilian-translated" to the FB pages and of course any sensitive information is taken out, but Ray's seen a rise in commands here in San Diego using FB pages to send out info. It should all be taken with a grain of salt, though, as anything can change on the fly. I would say that FB pages are faster than the old phone-tree method that was used when I was a Navy wife. After 9/11, most phone-tree messages that were sent out were modified by the time everyone got the message so a new phone-tree would have to be sent out.
I am so glad I never became the ombudsman.
So a CHTHULU would be a Contained Housing Terrestrial Habitat Underground Light Unit?

Well if he's "bored", then he will probably be one of the first people back. I actually got placed in a real position, so now I'm the LAST to go to Kuwait. From there, it's all in the air.

Wouldn't a "meat shield" imply being in front? Jus' sayin'

After all, getting there last does severely hamper your ability to call "Not it!".

The only "threat" is going to Kuwait, not in Kuwait. So if I'm left last to go, that only means that everyone else will find all of the potential IEDs before I get there.
Anyway, on topic, I seriously doubt that everyone is going to be back before the "holidays".. We have a lot of pissed off people because the president said that, given our situation. I hope he's right, then again, I want that Jan pay..
