I have been traveling around the United States and abroad for about 3 years now working in petro chemical plants, project managing for wind turbine farms and finally as a Master Electrician Inspector here in the Iraq war theater.

Well the company has had a contract change and I have opted out to go home,,a year over here will age you like no other place I have been,, this is tough living,, and with all the media reporting only the bad things,,makes it tougher yet,, there is still lot's of work to do here,, but I am missing the wife I love and the freedom we have back in the USA

God Bless America,, and to those who don't stand behind our Military, feel free to stand in front of them :D

Tommy---glad you are coming home, and I am sure both you and your wife will sure have a lot less stress.
As bad as things are in the US right now, I sure wouldn't want to live anywhere else, we have it pretty good compaired to most.
