We've been to so many Hail and Farewells since coming to Korea. Every month or 2 the battallion has them to welcome newcomers and say good bye to those leaving. They have to do them often because most people come for only a year or 2. Last night was FINALLY our turn to be farewelled!!!
Killing time...
Captain Guidry giving a speech about Clint and his time in Korea.
Clint saying farewell.
Dave, Clint and Paul. Good friends we will greatly miss.
My first military coin!!! ha ha!! The Battallion commander's wife gave it to me for helping out with Family Readiness Group stuff. I have served as the "baby greeter" giving baby gifts to new babies in the Battallion and as the Alpha Company treasurer.
It was a great night for us. Many mixed emotions. We will really miss our friends here. Its so hard to say goodbye. Aviation is a small world, so hopefully we'll see some of them again. We've had an interesting 2 years in Korea. Many, many lessons have been learned since moving here. Clint's career couldn't have gotten off to a better start and we feel very blessed for that.We're moving out of our apartment in 3 weeks and staying in a hotel for 10 days. Now that its August, we can finally say we'll be home this month!

Holy cow, that's so exciting!!! I can't believe it's already time for hail and farewells. The time really is flying now. We move to Texas in less than 2 months. It's really starting to fly by now.
