i am here now and i would suggest...lotion, your an extra unit patch for when you hit your mark youll look squared away cuz youll have yours, lots of white socks,extra shower shoes,yours will surely break after the first few months, you will have hot water...atleast 99% of the FOBs do now. Just to put it this way...your trip from the states to actual iraq will be a hurry and wait thing...youll be in kuwait for a good minute, not to mention going to other camps until you actually get to yours. Bring ear plugs( its part of your IBAS but bring an extra pair) make sure you have a flashlight for the power occasionally goes out. When you get over here you might have a chance to buy a phone like i did. Dont bother bringing phone cards because most of the places here require certain ones. DEET...yes bring some deet..flys out here are CRAZY. My room has a fridge,microwave, and tv but me and my roomy had to buy them, once you get settled in youll want to buy those things ...bring a power adapter and a power converter...if you have a playstation or things like that youll need to convert them from 220 - 110. I actually sent my DCU's home just because i dont wear them here...or the dark brown t-shirts. The laundry here usually takes 3 days turnaround..it sucks not to be able to do it on your own but you have to adjust right?Bring every pair of eye pro they have issued you because you WILL LOSE a pair or two. Body wash definatley makes life a little easier. 2 in 1 shampoo and conditioner helps also. Make sure that in your pack..you pack all of your electronic gear and things youll need in a hurry ...eye pro..underware...so and and so forth..since youll be in kuwait a while you dont want to have to search through you A, B , and C bag for everything you need....Also if you can pack everything in zip lock baggies...it takes the air out and you can fit things more effectively in your duffle. you wont know your addy until about 4 weeks in. so make sure your family knows so. USO will give you gift bags while your at the air field with playing cards, beef jerkey, shit like that...and you have to take it so keep in mind that you will be gettting more things even when your bags are already full. There are also certain sizes that your carry on bag has to be so make sure that you dont pack it too full....good luck with your travel...its a long ride so get as much sleep as you can...i think youll be making a stop in ireland...get a smoke break and stretch out take a pee in an actuall latrine.....just be patient when you leave because itll be a long wait.....good luck!!! anymore questions contact me!!

All that crap that you would normally sweat about - \n\nDoes this shirt look good?\nHow is my hair?\nWhat about these shoes?\nwill we be 5 mins late?\n\nGive it a rest, relax, and just go with the flow.

Find someone to watch your baby for the evening.  Make sure that the house is clean and orderly.  Make him his favorite dinner and dessert.  Afterwards, you can treat him to a massage, and a selection of other bedroom activities (whatever you guys enjoy!).\n\nIf you're going to be home before he is, you can have a little more fun with the preparations.  Maybe be waiting on the bed for him when he gets home, with a trail of rose petals leading to the bedroom.  Lighted candles and a couple glasses of sparkling cider would be a nice touch.\n\nDon't forget to unplug the phone.\n\nI wish you the best of luck and the best of times with your romantic night!

Be honest, have a good time, and be sure to ask questions that lead to discussion versus yes/no response.  Think "why is this important" instead of "is this important"

Here are some activities that come to mind:\nPre-install: Self preparation: (understand how instrument works, what it needs, what install/operate/ESD procedures are).\nSite preparation (space, electricity, any other needed utilities like cooling water, etc.). Equipment preparation (unpack, assemble, test with temporary utility hookup).\nInstall: Attach/bolt down if necessary, permanent hookup to utilities, test and calibrate.\nESD: Powerdown sequence, increase or decrease cooling, plus normal shutdown stuff like stow sensors, remove test materials, cleanup.

Oh I love parties!!     List every single thing that you  need, even if you think that there is no way that you would forget it.  List food and beverages-exactly what you want to have.   List things that you need to get  plates, forks, napkins, ice etc.   Don't forget to have a camera!!!   Go over what you have to do in order to get the place ready for it.   Ask people to give you a hand with it. Give your self enough time. It's also easier to make sure you get everything if you break it down into different trips, instead of loading up all at once.  If you will be outside at night at all, have citronella candles to keep bugs away..     Party ON

Oh thats an oldy but a goody. Its really not a stupid thing to prepare for bad times. Tornados,fires,floods,earthquakes. Just cause the media tells people its strange to have duct tape and water around dont mean its true. Good source is paladin press for books like this one

It depends on where you live. Are you in a cinderblock home? A manufactured home or trailer? An apartment? You should make sure you have insurance that covers your home (if you own) and/or your possessions. You should have photographs or video of your possessions, in case anything is damaged in a storm. Keep your insurance policies and records in a water-tight package and keep it handy in case you have to evacuate in a hurry.\n\nYou should stock up on bottled water (1 gallon per day per person, 3-5 days' worth at least) and nonperishable foods (pop tarts work well; things you can eat without cooking or, if you have a camp stove, things you can cook over it like soup [but be sure you have a non-electric can opener]). Make sure you have flashlights and/or candles and batteries/matches. Another option would be to pick up some glow sticks, which you can get at most home improvement stores. Masking tape is good for taping windows to avoid shattering in case of breakage, and if you plan to board your windows you'll need properly cut boards as well as anchors and a drill & bits as needed for your particular property. \n\nI also recommend having a stash of things to do, like board games or playing cards. Make or buy ice and a good-sized cooler you can use to try to keep some of your food items cold in case of power loss (we lost most of the contents of our refrigerator TWICE in 2004). If you have children, especially babies, make sure you have enough of their foods and if anything is perishable, make sure you have enough ice to keep it cool for a couple of days (not an easy thing to do!). When a storm is approaching your area, fill your car's gas tank up, get a small stash of cash in case banks are closed, and fill any prescrptions you may need in case the pharmacies are closed. Charge your cellphone and/or get a car charger for it. You should also have a battery-powered radio, preferably one with weather alerts, so you can keep on top of things.\n\nIf you have to evacuate, you should know where your nearest shelters are and whether any accept pets (if you have pets). Shelters have no supplies, so pack food, clothes, bedding, medicines, and important documents.

Keep your hunting clothes in a bad with some pine straw, dont wear any kind of scented anything including deoderant. Be quiet and be still. Its very serene, very calming, and then you see it. Freeze. Dont make a peep. Wait for it to get in your sights. Youll feel a rush and you will hear your heart thumping through your ears. Aim, take a deep breath, hold it, squeeze the trigger.  When you get him, sit still, be quiet. If it drops immediately, wait a few and give him time to pass, if he runs, listen to where he is going and listen for the crash. Good luck. and god bless,
