Hey guys, I asked stan (the guy who did almost all the work creating this site) if there was some place on the site to talk to each other. I think this is it. I know for various reasons some of you are not on facebook where we right now have 107 RM crew chiefs (and a couple FMS and a enrouter (Stan) in our group. On facebook there is a lot of talk between the folks and I wasn't sure we could do it here but evidently we can. So, if you guys want to say something I think this is the place to do it.
First I really want to welcome every one to the site. this thing was created for all of you, so please feel free to post what you want. I encourage you to leave each other messages i and Barry are trying to add pics and welcome everyone but also hope you can participate.
OK, with all that said, I'll try to start off a conversation I started on Facebook that seemed to get some interest.
Souvenirs, with the great job we had, getting to fly around all Europe and the Middle East, and Africa what kind of stuff did all you guys pick up you still might have? Of course there is the German stuff, co-coo clocks etc. But how about stuff like Gold, Rugs, tapestries from Saudi I still have a pile of tapestries and believe it or not, a broken Casio calculator watch (how I still have that is beyond me, but it's here). From Turkey, Brass lamps, hand carved wood furniture and decorations, I still have my puzzle box from Turkey. From Greece, I still have the pottery I picked up there, also a statue of a bronze Greek warrior on a marble base. The one thing I never got there was a flokati (sp). I think everyone but me had one. Ha-Ha. One of my favorites that I wish I could still get was macadonia soap from Spain, I loved that stuff. I tried to get some last year as gifts but let me tell ya, you can't get it as cheap as we used to! I still have my bristle dart board and a couple bosun heads from England. Or how about the hanging wicker chairs in every dorm room from Italy. What do you guys still have, or wish you would have kept?
