Greetings Denizens:

I have attached some new musings from our Buddy Mike for all your enjoyment.

Med Wanderings from our correspondent in Europe:

?que Pasa Hombres!
I just ported in Spain, we are only here for a few hours to resupply
and fuel. I was locked on to play 9 holes on base but it is pouring!
No worries though we will be in Greece soon enough. I hope everyone is
well. I will be uploading some pics soon and getting them out to you.
Please say hello to everyone from Me and The Marines! We miss you all!

Semper Fi,
Gunny

Just wanted to let everyone know, we entered the Mediterranean through the straits of Gibraltar late last night, and I was teeing off from the flight deck first thing in the morning!(see attached pic) The weather is great, unfortunately it was raining in Spain for the few hours we were there so no golf. However, Saturday I will be in Corfu Greece, my tee time for Saturday and Sunday has been set, via email, at the Corfu Country Club! After Corfu we are off to the desert armpit of Oman for a training op with the Omani Nation Army. Muslims and the desert, two things I could do without. We have a full schedule building up for the next 7 months and a lot happening geopolitical that could get interesting! Spirits are high with my Marines and basically good. Hope all is well.

Semper fi!

Must be nice eh!!!!!!

 

Love ya all,

Michael (Gunny)

 

Stay thirsty my friends.........Ciao.

The Wanderings

Hey Denizens,

Gunny Mike just me an email and asked me to pass it along.

Hey Gents,
Well we are well into the Atlantic, and the air is warming up.  The first few days were pretty rough and windy, but we pushed south and the seas and temps are much better.  I hope you enjoyed St. Pattys day for me, mine sucked!  The navy made green Ice cream....gay. Please pass along my email to Rusty and anyone else who wants to contact me.  I should be in Rota Spain soon, but only fro a day, however I was assured by the captain we will have enough time to play a round on base....I will take pics and get out to you all.  Miss you guys!!!

Gunny Out.

Hey guys I will post the photos on the blog when I receive them.

Gunny's email address is:  michael.connors@carter-hall.usmc.mil

Enjoy my my friends........
