SaintPendulous Posted July 25, 2011 Share Posted July 25, 2011 SO my cousin was supposed to get back from Afghanistan tomorrow in Lincoln, Nebraska. I had to rope and rangle and play with people schedules to get somebody to cover me and i couldnt get it figured out and finally after a week of asking i got it worked out with somebody. then today i get a text from my cousin saying "bad news i wont be home till wendesday...." SO i just did all that work for nothing and as it stands now im not gonna be able to get to see him come off the plane and come home why is all this happening? BECAUSE THE GOVERNMENT HAD PROBLEMS WITH ITS COMPUTERS!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scrappydoo Posted July 25, 2011 Share Posted July 25, 2011 The last time I came home from Iraq, it was supposed to be April 27th. My family waited and waited, we didn't come home. THEN, we came home two days after my birthday, they didn't tell our families and we weren't allowed to use phones (OPSEC) and we came off the plane to find only a few "office" staff who'd stayed behind. Imagine being put in barracks and finally allowed to use phones "guess what I am home...." THEN, they had us all climb on an airplane few days later and we were "greeted" by media and our families in this fake stupid dog and pony show. I pray your cousin comes home safely soon!
