airforcevm Posted March 14, 2009 Report Share Posted March 14, 2009 Hey there all. I just got back from Balad Iraq and wanted to let you guys know that I made it back safely. Most of you guys don't know me on here but so I'll tell you at about myself. I'm in the Air Force stationed in San Antonio TX at Lackland and I'm a diesel mechanic. I was deployed to Balad last June and just got back a few days ago. Its great to be home but the bad news is I'm going back to Balad, Iraq this July for another long trip. I'm planning on getting a 2010 GT Mustang when I return this next time. Anyways like I said its good to be back home. JHOD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ingram4868 Posted March 14, 2009 Report Share Posted March 14, 2009 Welcome home even though you have to go back in a few months. How long do you expect to be deployed this next time? My daughter deploys to Camp Liberty in July. I'm hoping you both will be among the last to have to go there. So have you got your Mustang colors and options already picked out in your head?

airforcevm Posted March 14, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 14, 2009 Welcome home even though you have to go back in a few months. How long do you expect to be deployed this next time? My daughter deploys to Camp Liberty in July. I'm hoping you both will be among the last to have to go there. So have you got your Mustang colors and options already picked out in your head? I'm hoping that it will be for just 6 months but knowing the way that the military is I'm sure it will be for a bit longer than that. Tell your daughter that we all hope its the last time that we go back. I have not been to Camp Liberty but let her know that I'm be there getting the F-16's in the air if the Army needs there help. I will be getting the GT in that charcol gray with the track pack option and as must performance parts as I can get. I would like the sadle color interior with the 5 speed manual. I have built the car in my head so I know what I would like when the time comes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

69dejavue Posted March 14, 2009 Report Share Posted March 14, 2009 Welcome HOME and may your next deployment be quick and God Speed your safe return. Hopefully it you can find a very good deal you will even decide on a Shelby. Perhaps a dealer here, such as MM, could help you. I don't think you would regret the Shelby. Thank you for your selfless service to our country. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dlangvardt Posted March 15, 2009 Report Share Posted March 15, 2009 Welcome home, from an ex-weapons loader. I know how you feel having spent 20 years in the Air Force. I remember what it was like when I returned from Thailand, Germany and Turkey. Having bought cars through AAFES I know sometimes you can get a better deal from a local dealer. I had my Dad work a deal with a local dealer one time and used the AAFES price that I sent to him as a starting point. The local dealer beat the AAFES price. If they can't make a better deal buy It from AAFES. Pentagon Federal Credit Union has some of the best financing around. Again welcome back and thanks for your service.
