Default waybills waybills waybills!

Man, work work work!

The bad part is that with the first group of boxes that I send via DHL/Airborne this morning, I unknowingly 'demoted' a Major down to a Captain, d'oh!

Maybe those goodies will smooth over the grief!

Almost done!

BTW, it's all going to "BGW" imagine that!

Plug that in your FMS and see where it points!

How many days will it take DHL to ship the stuff over there?

Get this, six to eight days!!!! Yes! But we'll have to see how long

None of that government APO jazz where it sits in a depot in NY or Dover for 8 weeks, but they're sending it right to the airbase, and right to the soldier.

I'm about to make my second delivery to the DHL/Airborne station and there's a vietnam vet helping me out. He used to serve on a ship and said that if he even got an empty box with his name on it, it'd have made his tour a lot easier.

The thing that he craved on the ship was "cold, cold, milk".

Sweet, Doug! It will get there right in time for Christmas and they'll know that people haven't forgotten about them.

I couldn't believe what I heard about the public affairs people not seeing this as a priority!

I'm still shocked at how "fast" they're going to get there. Hell it takes Dell about that long to send my repaired laptop back, but this this is going from Phoenix to the Kirkuk Air Base relatively quickly.

Man o man!
