Posted by Cobrahistorian on Thursday, May 3, 2007 8:12 AM

Hey all,

I know I haven't been around much latel, but I wanted to let everyone here know that I'll be out of touch for a few weeks as of Sunday 6 May.  Time for SERE school, so the suck-factor is going to go through the roof for the next several weeks.  I should be back (and in one piece) by the 27th.  

Take care, have fun and don't do anything I wouldn't do!

Jon

Jon,

Good luck and make sure you eat lots of stuff you like before you enter SERE training.

Enjoy eating those worms.

And don't tell them ANYTHING when you get do caught. Remember: they are only needles, and the pain isn't permanent.

While the rest of the crew may be in the same predicament, it's almost always the pilot's job to arrive at the crash site first.

Kinda new to the groups and reading the posts to get myslef up to speed.  Glad you made it back in one peice.  Do they still do resistance training there?  I went back about 15 years ago.  Man, Fun times.

Ray,

Sure did! Been busy as heck lately.  I should be around.  

John,

It was actually a great experience.  Sure it sucked, but I learned a lot.  ALL Aviators have to go through SERE C now, so it was quite the experience to say the least.  

I'm outta here in four and a half weeks!

Jon
