Where did this year go? I can't believe it's already Thanksgiving. This year, we celebrated with two fantastic groups: the 25th and the OSS.
First up, we repeated the fantastic tradition that the 25th has: the Thunderbolt Feast. Basically, we cook way too much food and invite the maintainers over to eat turkey dinner. It is a great day of fellowship with the fine men and women who keep our pilots safe everyday. This year, I just ate a light lunch, as we had another group to go celebrate with.
Ronnie has moved into a new job and is in charge of the Life Support office in the OSS. It's another group of unsung heroes because these guys make sure that all of the aircrew equipment is up to safety standards. And another group worthy of a semi-home cooked meal. I wasn't able to do a full turkey dinner for them, but we made ham and most of the sides. I don't think there was anyone who went hungry in that group... for days.
All in all Thanksgiving in Korea, part deux, was a success. We were able to spend time with a group of people who probably don't think the pilots appreciate them (and most the time they don't)... but hopefully, this one day let them know that we do appreciate what they do on a day in day out basis to keep daddy coming home safe and sound.
Happy Thanksgiving everyone!
