    Default Cavguy heads to Afghanistan

    Hey all,

    Apologize if I've been a little light on the posting, my Brigade's been in a pretty heavy train-up for Afghanistan which has sapped much of my spare time.

    I'll be shipping out this week, we'll be replacing the Stryker Brigade currently in RC-S. Our Squadron will have a piece of dirt around Kandahar. Will post more (and hopefully some observations) when I can and during the tour. I get to put into action what I've learned around here and elsewhere the past four years! Thanks to the council members for all of their mentorship and support!

    It's never about luck, but always about preparation. Get at 'em with the vehicles. Employed with some deliberate effort, they perform fine.

    Good luck, Niel. My buddy is the -3 for 525- you may see him.

    I'll be at NTM-A in about 2 months, probably won't get out, but who knows. Shoot me a note if you need anything on the training side.

    Best of luck Cavguy - don't hesitate to employ us as an unofficial research arm.

    Do great things -- and keep your head down; eyeball defilade works.

    P.S.
    Push those dismounts...

    Default Bonne chance ....

    Niel; get back to us here at SWC as you can during your tour; and finally when you get back to US, we can say "welcome home".

    I still like your "COIN Course" - to which, I hope you add after Astan.

    Regards

    Mike
