Pete here - still flying in the Air Force and now out in Nevada. Been married for almost 16 years - three boys (15, 13, 10). All sorts of good and bad war stories. Sorry missed the re-union but as you can imagine - been busy lately.
Thanks for the email Clark and look forward to hearing more from folks.

Dropped a few things and done some unique ones. Flown 4 differnet weapon systems since being in - been Saudi/Kuwait/Iraq 4 times, Afghan 2, Turkey once and some other places that I won't put in print. Loved every minute of it except 4 hours of evading across Afghanistan after a helicopter crash...fun fun.
So how did the re-union go? Wanted to go but poor timing. Any real surprises on how folks are doing? Glad to hear from all and will keep eye on website.

I didn't go to the reunion myself, like you said poor timing, heard it was small, but a good time...
I would love to see some pics after all these years, not sure if you know where to look but you can post them either under your name
master list then L then your name
or in pictures from the last 20
there is a little tutorial how to do it using photobucket in the pictures section

Pete, Bill Meece here, I fully understand about the good and bad times with the military. Been doing it myself now for quite some time although I am not an officer. I do get to play with helo's though.

Hey Pete,
So where are you these days - I couldn't find you in the Global. I'm at Scott doing my Staff tour. I'm hoping to get back to flying maybe this summer. Are you still in 130s? Hope you are well, Paul

Hope you are well, Paul Hey Paul - now out at Nellis AFB (actually north of Nellis at Creech AFB). Left C-130s a long time ago. Can't find an aircratf I want to stay with it seems. Left C-130, went to rescue flying HC-130s then flew Hueys before going to Special Ops flying MH-53s. Did staff tour then stood up Predators for AFSOC. Now on JCS with the "Joint Unmanned Aircraft Systems Center of Excellence". Best yet - it is a flying slot so get to fly still (if you want to count Predator flying as flying).

Pete - so here's a funny little twist of fate. I did some work with J-UCAS while interning at DARPA - very cool my brotha.
So what's next for you from JCS? I'm hoping to return o fly next summer. Drop me a line sometime.
See ya, Paul
