11-26-2019, 09:27 AM #1Checking In....Again...
So, we are working on our third extension out here with no true return home date, except that we might leave the area at the end of December with a return of sometime early next year. On top of that, they blocked almost every website now due to security reasons, so I can’t even chat with my friends in The bench. So, now we are finally getting a few days off in a port, which has been almost 3 months since our last one. Anyways, enough of my complaining. Share your big hits, pulls or life altering finds, so I can live vicariously through you. Hope you all are doing well.

11-26-2019, 12:24 PM #3Hey Billy - great to hear from you. Stay safe and hopefully you will be home sooner rather than later!
Haven't yet posted it here, but pulled a Vlad Jr. Auto out of Chrome update - hoping it brings a decent enough return to cover the purchase of a couple of the boxes!
Happy Thanksgiving - and will save the Xmas/New Years with the thought you will be back home to enjoy them!Building Topps sets from 1969 to the present. Always looking for Puckett cards.

11-27-2019, 01:59 PM #5Thanks everyone. I'm glad you all are getting some nice cards.
This is my last deployment before I retire and has been the hardest deployment of this Sailor's 18 1/2 years. March 2021 can't get here fast enough....

12-01-2019, 10:05 AM #8A few hours left before I need to head back to the ship. I hope you all have a great holiday season. I'm hearing rumors that we might be in a port for Christmas, but just rumors at this point.
Happy Holidays all,
Billy
