Mark
Mark is enjoying his experiences in the Air Force. He completed his 3-year assigment in Heidelberg, Germany, and moved to Savannah Georgia in October, only to be notified that his rotation to Iraq had been moved up from the spring to "now." So he spent a few weeks handling all the details for that. He hadn't even finished doing his inprocessing when he had to start his outprocessing. He had to move out of the apartment he had just moved into, cancel all his utilities and cell phone, make arrangements for the new car he had just bought, etc. It was a pretty hectic time. He did weather briefings for the Army pilots in Iraq for 6 months and is now back in Savannah. He did get to take a couple of helicopter rides to check on weather equipment. He would love to hear from you. He is settled again in Savannah, hopefully for a while!
Also see some of the comic strips he sent to us while on his LDS mission in Santiago, Chile.
