Oh, and as for coming back.. I have my reason.

Absolutely! I'm always amazed at keyboard warriors who say crap on here that they would never say in person.

Why I quit posting too. It was that or double dog dare a few guys to a duel

A little off topic but I seem to remember some sort of bulletin or something about not having to fly to Africa on short notice if you haven't been taking malerone pills. Anybody know where that bulletin is? Or is it in the FOM now and I just cannot find it? Thanks for any help.

Can you tell me where in the new PWA it is? I'm having a bit of trouble finding it. Thanks

So am I. Been looking since I posted that. Old live contract did not have the loa in it either.

I got some extra bling on top of my guarantee in Nov 2010 for this very reason- I got assigned an MED trip with 24 hours when it had been in open time the whole month (I wonder why no one picked it up?

).

2 days over Thanksgiving on the Amazon for me that year!

Well, I've finally found a couple of references. With this new PWA, I've been contemplating bidding reserve (really junior reserve) on the 330 if I can hold it some time in the next year but don't want to go to Africa all the time. Since I'm a SEA guy and would not bid the 330 anywhere else, I wonder how often SEA reserves are called on to cover out of base Africa trips. I guess I could avoid it by not getting the theater qual.
