What makes a deployment easier is having a home away from home. You form a sort of a family. Whats great about it everyone has such a different personality and comes from different backrounds. We laugh and joke and hate eachother from time to time. Funny ass shit goes down when you got7 dudes living and working together for a year. To my left we have my Ace my gunner Gotti. Aka Gotti, Deaf Bastard, Garin, GareBear, WhiteFolks. If you want to know anything about animals or lizards or what not. He is a Steve Irwin watching mofo. He sleeps kiddie corner to me and he likes it when I chase him butt ass naked around the room. He is probably the most supersticious dude I know. I threw this dumb ass die cast car out the window of the truck and he freaked out and we had to drive back and get it. Its funny though he instigates a lot of arguements just to get people roused and shit. The running joke is that I'm always super mean to him and then blame it on Drake. Me and Spantonio talk shit about him in the truck and he can't hear us. Don't get me wrong though I love him like my brother and I would do anything for him. Don't fuck with my Sleepy ass GareBear or I will fuck you up.
This here is Jimmy we all know Jimmy from previous posts. Aka Jimmy Balls, Lethargic, Old Man, Critter, the Hobbits, shit the list is really to long to put down on the blog. If you need to know something about an old T.V. show or music or how things were back in the day you ask Jimmy. If he don't know he will try to look it up on the internet. He is just starting to become computer saavy. Jimmy is like a cartoon character-an old one. No he is funny as shit and nice to boot. Except when you fuck with his food. The Poor hajji's at Speicher that have to deal with Jimmy if they mess up his order he will start screaming at them its great. We call him Jimmy balls because of an incident that happened at Ft. Drum involving a half naked Jimmy and a bottle of Tequila. We do have pictures to prove it Jimmy even though you don't remember. He is the best scrounger ever the guy can find anything and he is one hell of a cook. He keeps morale up around here by making dinner for us every now again. He keeps us on edge with his sneaky uncle jets boxers. We love you Jimmy but homie your still going to the home.....
This here is Jake our aspiring politician. Aka Download, HardDrive, DSL, and his newest Spanky..... hehehe. Anything political he has a really awesome grasp on if you have any questions regarding politics and how shit in government works you ask him. He won't just give you his own view of it he'll give you a broad view and a good explanation of it. He ran into a stroke of bad luck when he went on leave and he found out his (well I hate to air his dirty laundry but the bitch really pisses me off)hmmm whats a good descriptive... Well I whore comes to mind when thinking about a way to describe his cheating wife but thats neither here nor there and I would hate to bad mouth that harlet of a woman without the permission of my friend Jake. He has the best gay voice I've ever heard and keeps us in tears when he starts that shit in a crowded public place... I think he knows the lyrics to every song ever made.. Its amazing. He has the worst job out of us all though riding in the cone of silence.... We feel for you my man and if you ever want me to write a nasty gram to your loving ex you let me know. Like I said I don't want to air your dirty laundry about that filthy it goin rain ex of yours without your permission.Drake, aka Drake the Snake, Super Drake, drrrrraaakkkkee, Wooly mammoth, Cowboy. This dude is just crazy. At random times he will be backing up NTV's or jumping out of his area yelling some crazy shit or cutting people with knives and he is constantly picking on Gotti. This guy has the rankest ass I've ever smelt in my life. Dude farts outside and makes the outside stink... Amazing. He is a super good leader and NCO, he is smart as all hell. He is our self taught commo guy and even though half the time you can't understand his ass cuz he talks like Boonhower from King of the Hill or read his hand writing cuz he writes like the 5 year old Iraqi kid hiding in Jimmy's foot locker <--Thats a joke... But it is true that you can't read Drakes chicken scratch, he is a great friend and very interesting to talk to. He taught us all about pookyalks (i probably didn't spell that right). He is a farmer cowboy guy and knows tons and tons about being a hilly billy country boy.
I'm not done yet there I still got to get Spantonio but its about the end of my shift so I'll have to get him tomorrow. If I went on to tell you all of the great things about my family here this blog would turn into a novel more so than it is already. I love these guys like I would love a perternal sibling. I would die for them and I know that they would do the same for me. Since Eggs has to sit out the last couple of missions now he prays for us before we go out. We talk a lot of shit to each other and give each other a lot of shit but god help someone from outside the family that tries that shit cuz there gonna get fucked up. I enjoy the conversations that I have with all these guys there is a little bit of everything and I learn new stuff from them all the time. When one of us has a problem all of us have a problem and for the most part every one in our little family knows everyone elses business. Like the thing with Jakes ass- wife we all hate that bitch and definitely have choice words for her. Most of the time we eat together breakfast lunch and dinner and sit down at the same table, on occasion some of the guys stay back and eat at the house. Its great when we all roll together for some group function everybody around us thinks were crazy cuz Jake will start with the gay shit or we will make fun of Gotti cuz he can't hear shit. Whenever we are in a room with any other G-shop or group from HHC you can tell where the comraderie and loyalty is. Its in our group. We are definitely the most outspoken out of all of HHC. Loud ass bastards. I guess its cuz most of us can't hear shit. No doubt in HHC the boyz have ate the most IED's and traveled the most miles off of this FOB. Well anyway I'm getting a bit sentimental and I haven't even started on Spantonio but he'll get his. So tune in tomorrow bat fiends. And ladys remember inverted means your ass ain't tryin. Thumb out. Roodawg Out!
