    Possible to switch posting?

    There are more things to do here than most people realize, but many of them choose to keep their eyes closed and complain about how horrible it is to be here. Very true!!!  And we know plenty of those, as well as plenty of people who love it here.    Griffon, do you think you could volunteer...

    questions from a first-timer

    Well, DH is talking about enlisting and we're working out the logistics of how to do that... so far more questions than answers but this looks like a place to find some honesty  :) We have two kids - 3yo and an infant.  The 3yo is very attached to daddy - any advice on how to cope with the...
