My name's Tom, been a Packer Backer since I got out of the Air Force in 1985. Married with 5 kids ( 3 of which are almost as old as some of you). Only 2 at home now, 1- 15 year old boy, and 1- 12 year old girl that played football with the Nekoosa Knights last year( middle linebacker). I live in Central Wisconsin and am the one and only mechanic for the local taxi service and handicapped vans.

Hey tom, my step son is in Air Force!

I hope he enjoys it, I had a great time while I was in! I'm an old fighter mechanic, F-4's and F-111's. Got to travel all over the world.

he works on planes as well...sheet metal maybe? He just got back from "The Rock" over seas

What do they refer to as "The Rock" these days? I spent a year in Iceland and at the time that was "The Rock".

A place in Afghanistan

Yup, 57th Fighter Interceptor Squadron (F-4C models, 1976-1977)

---

I wonder why they call Afghanistan "The Rock"? It's more like the "Hole".

---

not sure but got a pic of him standing next to "the rock"

Well, tell him "Thanks for serving his country" for me!
