Milk......It does a soldier good!
Hey! I know what you're thinking. "Wow, two posts in a week!" But I have something impressive. The Canadians have real milk! Yep, after a recent patrol, in the vicinity of somewhere, we stopped by one of the Canadian FOBs and had dinner. They had real, whole milk. I dipped a fresh chocolate chip cookie into it and had one of those flashback moments with the streaming music playing in the background. Then I thought "if the Canadians can get fresh milk, why the hell can't the US Army get it?" Suddenly remembering that real milk is for Air Force personnel, I returned to my moment of splendor and enjoyed three glasses of milk, savoring every moment like a high ball of Crown Royal or a pint of Flying Dog.

Dear Heart, I can hardly wait to give you a job mowing yards (drinking a beer), taking a shower (drinking a beer), watching the rain (drinking a beer) and cooking lots of real milk and homemade food! (And drinking a beer)!
Mom on the Countdown.
