Ragnarok is back from the 'stan,,,,,
Non-Beer Discussion by RAGNAROK
Gentlemen, A rough tour. Lost some good Troopers. In spite of my best efforts, I just could not save them all. Over 150 firefights, and over a dozen concussions from RPG fire and IED strikes, I am still here. My wounds are not readily visible, though I bleed just the same. We took no prisoners and put paid to the Taliban with over 2000 enemy KIA. I am back to building my cellar again, even got another bottle of Bitches Brew and a few other favorites. So, my Beer Pals, next gathering of the initiated and knowledgeable, drink to our fallen. For they WILL NOT BE FORGOTTEN!!! Slainte!!! Rag

Welcome Home!! lifting a beer to you and all that have given so much!!
Rags, welcome home, brother. Put your feet up and sit a spell. Catch your breath. You were gusting to 600 mph while most of us were steady at 3 from the southwest and complaining about the gusts to 40! It's hard to accept that 3 mph can be normal when you know what is really going on back there. There's normal over there and normal here. This is your new normal now. You made it home. Memorial Day will never be the same for you as long as you remember those who fought by your side and did not come home. You cannot forget, nor should you. But you can adjust. It takes a few months to adjust, and you may have to work at it. But you can, and you will. Put your feet up and sit a spell. Catch your breath. Welcome home, brother.
