Why I love my job

As I was sitting in the squadron a couple of marines decided to stop by. Now normally this would shock me but I was expecting them. They are just getting into town and we are looking to do some training with them. They ask to see a jet and since I hate the office I was more than happy to go give a tour. As we go out to the line they take a look and are just amazed. Seriously a Marine amazed at us! This makes me kinda happy since they are the guys that bust down the doors, never back down and generally get the job done the first time. Nope these guys are all combat veterans and been in the dirt when things have gone bad but they all said that we were the ones overhead and ready when they needed it. Yup the mighty B-52 50 years old and still able to put steel on target wherever and whenever needed. I just wish I had the opportunity to do that job instead of being on an island doing training and presence...............

On the plus side only a month till we get to go home and see the lovely little lady we left behind and the little girl she's been taking care of.
