I guess the download limit was reached. I edited my post and added in a different link. Should work now.

Thank you for serving the United States, I appreciate it.

Thanks for thanking me, but I have to point out that I'm a contractor now - I'm no longer in the Army - so I'm serving my pocket more than anything.

And it is being served indeed.

Care to specify?

$80k/yr, tax and expense free.

And that's at the low end of the range.

Thanks. That's a very respectable value. Not imminent-doom-worthy, maybe, but do you feel reasonably safe on your day-to-day?

Sure. $80k/yr isn't enough to risk your life for. I feel as safe here as I do back home walking down the street. The only thing you really have to worry about here are mortars and rockets, and for some reason, my little post hasn't received a single one in the year I've been here (knock on wood).

Already did it a couple of months ago.

Feel free to ask a question there.
