It's Final.

don't mean to upset anybody, and PLEASE for the love of God check your opinions at the door...

I will be leaving March 31st - April 1st. Set in stone. No working around it, no delays. Time to get on the bird, Bird.

I'm not gone yet, but I already miss you all. I do have addy's from certain people, and although I don't know where I'm going, will the first person to get a letter from me post the address up here? Jaye does indeed love mail, so please keep my spirits up.

I don't know what the situation is going to be like once I get there because I'm not a fortune teller, If I was, I wouldn't be in the army and I prolly wouldn't be as much fun as I am now, so I can't tell you much. I will decree that whatever I will be doing, I will remain safe and sound to the best of my abilities with every hope and chance of making it home in one piece. (I don't care how snazzy a Purple Heart looks, I don't want one. EVER.) Regardless, I will not keep any of you uninformed, and I hope to see you all soon.

Much love to all,

The Firebird.

You'll be in our hearts and prayers, bird.

I've been missing you since you first told me you might be going. Now I guess I'll have to miss you even more, huh?

This better not be all an elaborate scheme to get mail. Because, you know, it'll work.

Take care, Jaye.

I'll probably will talk to you before you're gone, but if not...

Take care. Be safe. Get back in one piece.
See you on the flipside.

1. Watch out for british helicopters.
2. Don't shoot any reporters they foist on your unit. If they get annoying, just remember two words. "Snipe Hunt"
3. Watch out for pissed of comrades with grenades.
4. Always be cautious when dealing with surrendering enemies.
5. Come back safe, or we all go hunt you down.
6. DON'T GET COCKY.
