And, did you take time to mark one of the little squares at the bottom of the post?

Another follow up on the story of my first Army tour all about coming down with the Asian Flu (among the very first) and then to completing Basic @ A Soldier's Stories A Soldier's Stories

I've just continued the story of my first tour of duty in the US Army with a bit about my arrival by train in Gay Paree and further travel to a place called Camp de Bussac just north of Bordeaux. It is just the start as I have far more to write about my little over two years in the land of wine and perfume - and explaining why the French invented it. Check it out @ A Soldier's Stories

There are three little boxes at the end of the blog where you can indicate your reaction to it. And, if you wish, comments are always welcome.
