The rains here at Bagram have postponed the flights coming and going. People are getting edgy waiting to leave country. You put in your time and right before you exit - you wait. The deployments last about a year unless you are Air Force which is six months or the Red Cross which is four and half months. They seem longer.
Guy goes to the Doctor. The Doctor says, "You have six months to live."
He asks, "Can I spend it at Bagram Air Base in Afghanistan?"
The Doctor says, "Sure but why there?"
"Because it will seem like an eternity."
AND, everyone at home is waiting...for what seems like an eternity...for their loved one at Bagram to come safely home. LB;)
