| Stage where they announced our assignments |
The last check ride went well! Some weather rolled in that week and forced me to change my profile from Air-Drop to Air Refueling. This was great news considering the Air Refueling makes more sense for me going to the KC-10. We briefed, we flew, we completed! Friday was a great day to check since it was also our drop night. Most of the guys were back in the flight room socializing and wondering what aircraft they might get assigned later that night. It was such a wonderful feeling being finished! I felt like I was floating everywhere I went that day. Our drop was pretty awesome. For the most part, everyone is very happy with their future assignment. You could sense once it was all over everyone could breathe a sigh of relief. Knowing was half the battle.
In the meantime, I am busy out processing as much as I possibly can so that when the family gets here I can spend time with them. As I write this, there is only six days until they all get here. I cannot wait! In the meantime I am spending the time going to the gym (*cough* golfing), packing my apartment, and enjoying quality time with some of my flight-mates here at Laughlin. My next post will be when I have wings! ...typing that gives me chills.

After graduation Steph and I will be driving back to the great Garden State to our new home. I start my KC-10 Initial Qualification school October 7th. Life is great!
