Called to Duty

[Army]

Dear AO family,

As of 10 March '03, I will be activated. I will be part of Armored Task Force 185, slated for Korea.

I will be pre-screening all next week, then most likely be on my way to Ft. Lewis in Washington. From there it's a good bet I will be sent to Yakima Training Center, also in Washington. After that, it looks like a long plane ride to Seoul.

The timing of gaining new Mods here, could not have been more fortuitous. My duties as a Moderator for AO will be put on hold indefinately. I do not know when I will be released from duty, nor do I care.

My duty is to my Country first, my soldiers under me second, and the welfare of my family third. I will sorely miss all of you, but since there are internet accessable 'puters all over the world, I will still be able to keep an eye on you guys:D

So long friends, I'll talk to you all soon.

SGT David Medzyk, Bco, 340th FSB, 40th Infantry Division (mech) Dragon Slayers
