Pictures from Qatar!

#1 Postby pojo » Tue Nov 01, 2005 2:09 pm

Here is a sample of my adventures here in Qatar.... I hope you enjoy.

Image
Doha has an ice slide in the mall! That was way to much fun.


Image
Getting into the flight suit was a challenge... I'm skinny, but not that skinny!

Image
Me and Kelly with passenger (pax) line guys.


Most Importantly (seriously, It's why I am here)

To borrow a [very old phrase] from Billy Crystal's Fernando Lamas character,

Here in Qatar we don't need weapons or level 4 body armor nor weapons. I would be nice to shoot something, but that can wait.

You guys are welcome.

As always, thank you for your continued support.

thanks for the instant upgrade... I'm not quite a SSgt yet.... either 2006 or early 2007. I'll probably have 2LT by then.

I'll do what I can to get back to CONUS ASAP. Hopefully, late Dec or early Jan.

Oh, that's right...I forgot the new rank changes! Senior Airman, not "Sergeant" (rank no longer exists in AF), THEN Staff Sergeant, etc. Showing my age, I guess.
