Looks like next October I'll be back in South Korea for a year. Hopefully I can get back to Germany after that.

So why are America moving more of their armed forces into Korea?

American forces have been in South Korea for over 50 years now...

I know that, but it seems like they're increasing their presence, was just wondering why. They probably don't tell you about that kinda shit anyway do they?

Who told you that? Our presence has been strong there. Troops are always rotating in and out there, it's a short tour.

South Korea is by far the least favorite place I've lived but, I'm kinda looking forward to going back. I'm gonna buy a new wardrobe and things for my next house/apartment I live. Also, I did do some amazing stuff last time I was there, I went shark diving, I was always white water rafting, volunteered at the orphanage every month, ate a lot of strange stuff, went to Thailand for the first time, met 2 of my best friends, joined this board (lol! seriously). It shouldn't be that bad.

SO I find out through the grapevine that a few folks that were in Korea while I was there last time are also going back and also some people I know from other places are headed there as well. Should be fun. I'm a little curous though because last time I was there, there was this girl who worked in my office. I called her "Annoying Office Bitch". She's going back as well. I started e-mailing with her and she seems cool now, that and I don't think we'll be workin gin the same organization this time so it won't be so bad. I'm bored.

Yup that was a few years back. That's funny you remember her but, I guess I DID complain about her constantly. All my friends laughed when they heard she was going back too. A few of them have bets about whether her and I end up hooking up or not:o. It should be an interesting assignment.

Thanks for the luck, I'm gonna need it :D

I think I'd rather be in S.Korea than Germany, but Germany is okay. Maybe I can transfer to the US Army or something. Wait, you're not even Army, are you? Either way. I want a transfer.

No I'm not in the Army :)

I guess different people have different preferences. For me, Germany was the bomb diggity.

Oh brother. SoKo in October means that you'll make it just in time for winter FTXs. I'm not sure how you wingnuts have FTXs over there but, in the army, we have at least 3-4 per year and the winter time is very damn harsh.

The downtime in SoKo kicks ass though. Take it easy on the soju and if you run into Spacemonkey, tell him we miss him.
