Dude sent me a letter the other day with a request to tell all you guys hello for him. He's being attacked by biting flies and mortars and says it's no cup of tea, but to send everyone best wishes for the holidays!

It sucks being overseas during Christmas Holidays...at least, it did Dec '67. (the flies and mortars were bad there, too)

It's good to hear that he's around... at least somewhere :jointsmile:.

I look forward to reading his own words when comes home and tells us all about it :thumbsup:!

Hopefully we'll see h4h in 1 piece! :)

This bowl is to keep the bombs, mortars, bullets and freak accidents away!

Good to hear he is still keeping on. I remember when he left..:(
Do you know when his tour ends?


and Dutch, I still want to hear all about yours...if ever you're gracious enough to share. It would do lots to have a first hand account of my research subjects.

If you have a chance to send our best wishes back to higher4hockey, tell him he is still in our prayers along with all the other serving with him. We all have wished him well when he left and probably will be, way after her gets home!

You is a good guy higher4hockey, you are missed. Enjoy your holidays, as best you can and please don't smoke your hockey stick, you may need it to hit off a few mortars. (just joking dude, as I recall, I don't think you partake in much besides hockey and this forum!).

yeah I remember H4H, didn't know he was in the service... hope he stays safe over there. I got a bunch of friends in Iraq right now, I'm sending them all Christmas cards/letters.
