I was hoping to be able to make the Spring Game this year, but not gonna happen. I don't get my two weeks away from this lovely place until I leave on the 23rd. It takes approx 2-3 days to get back to the states and I should be home around the 26th of April.

So drink a few extra cold ones (outside the stadium of course), Freak get that grill fired up, and hopefully if everything works out OK I will be back for at least one game at the end of the regular season.

SENT TO ME BY A UT FAN (MY BROTHER)
Hey Major Falcon!!!!! Love the gift from your brother!!! That is great!!! Keep posting, it's awesome to hear from you!!
"Regarding BGSU, I would think their biggest strength is that they never give up, They never slow down and they battle hard even after the other team scores. We have to be on our game and never, ever take the foot off the gas for a second."

"BG was relentless. It's like they know that a good first pass on the breakout from a defenseman will almost always result in an odd-man rush against them - but they go in anyway and dare you to make that pass. All three of their goals were just grit and effort. That's a team any fan can be proud to support...they give all they've got."

Thanks for all you're doing, and God bless.

I believe that's the clip for the night vision goggles.



Where does he get those wonderful toys?

Careful with what you post, Mitch. This image can be considered porn in the eyes of MACMAN.

:-D

That is correct, it is the clip for NVG's. If you look close, you will see mine is actually broken. Since this picture, I have had it replaced.

The vehicle behind me is called a BUFFALO. We also use something called a HUSKIE. It would have been cool if they would have called it a FALCON, but at least it is a member of the MAC family. There is a Forward Operating Base (FOB) named FALCON that I have been to a few times.

I am not too fond of ROCKETS or their cousin the mortar. We use armored BOBCATS to push back rubble and trash from the highways to reduce the IED threat which can create FLASHES of light and big booms. We ZIP around in other vehicles as well.

We see a few BRONCOS pulling wagons, but mostly donkeys.

Now, if you see Zippy, the Akron Kangaroo hopping around there, I'll really start to wonder!

Mitch,

You KNOW that grill will always be fired up!! Stay safe, God bless and we'll see ya back here in a couple weeks. We've been so busy around here that I didn't get a chance to send that package. I'll save it for ya here in a few.

Thanks for the updates and your service. Thank all those with you as well.

No. If you see Zippy, shoot it on sight! Same goes for any sad Bobcats or odd looking astronauts in fruity blue and gold suits. :wink:

Mitch, I hope all is going well with you. I hope that we can meet up at another bowl game this year (Mobile would be great, huh? :D ) later this year and you can introduce me to your new addition! STAY SAFE!!!

It's Kangaroo season all year round.

Bobcats are near extinction, so don't bother.

Glad to see Major Falcon is doing well. For a second, I thought this was a new picture from MACMAN. :lol:
