Welp we all new this time was coming. I have been slated to go to the Coast Guard Academy. Its in New London Conneticut. I looked around on the forums and it doesnt look to active there. I hate to see it come to this but I'm 100% positive I'm cold weather bound. I will talk to you guys soon. Dont know when we are leaving but I will keep you in the loop.

 

Yep it's cold out here.
Let me know once you up here
I go to CT quite a few times.

Looks like you another 1hr out from the furthest I have been to in CT which is Bridgeport.

 

Doh, well real question does that base have a machine shop, and how far is the closes drag strip.

 

Supposedly they have a killer machine shop unfortunatly I wont be working in it. But thats not to say I wont sweep the floors in it till they give me the keys.

i went their once as a paid trip from ROTC in High School(Hialeah High). Its a hugs place and I learned a lot of how things are ran in there. I got to see a massive submarine cruising in the bay , its was amazing to see it. Well bro hope you make it all the way. Que Dios te bendiga.

im from west hartford, ct, miss the scenery from up there. you're going to get to see real roads and this crazy things called "hills." i wished i owned a sports car when i lived up there. get used to not being able to buy alcohol in stores after 8 or on sundays at all

 

idk what ur talkin bout Arsine, i see hills almost erryday roun here.. When u ride low, everytime i see a bump looks like a big a$$ hill to me!

 

I bet they'll now be calling you "shorty" at work.. Good luck in your next assignment.
