So, my Dad left for Afghanistan for a year today. He called me, and I missed his call. I called him back a few minutes later, and he answered. He said he had to use the restroom, and he call back 5 minutes later, but he never did. My Dad is somewhere over the ocean flying to Afghanistan right now, I won't get to talk to him for 365 plus days... :'(

Dude, that sucks. But you never know, he could get time on a Sat phone to call or something like that, so maybe not a whole year without contact. May he return safe and sound, regardless.

Elara : His cell phone.. He turned it off, and it is in the mail back to North Carolina, towards my step mom... yada yada yada. Point is, I don't know how he would call me. My uncle gets on facebook and stuff, but he is a contractor, not a soldier. Well, at least not any more.

Cyro Xero is in Afghanistan but still gets time to come on here. Perhaps you could ask him a few questions about how contacting home works for soldiers.

Elara : Cyro is in Afghanistan? I was gonna meet him for lunch when I flew into Seattle a month and a half ago, but nothing ever got put into motion... I'll ask him through summon so he see's this next time he gets on.

Cyro Xero: any help on how soldiers contacting family from over sea's work?

edit: stupid spell checker.

Markeith21 : You mean you would be depressed if you couldn't talk to a relative that is going overseas?  And just curious here, but are you going around posting on all of my threads? Cause if you are, you missed a few.

Wow that really sucks =(, but as Elara said, I'm sure you will be able to contact him somehow, I hope he returns alive and well, with many cool stories to tell. When I turn 18, I'm going to do some sort of army thing so my college will be paid for so I can be a Veterinarian. (8+) years of school, or if I like the army, I'll stay there . Whatever.
Also your summon failed because you edited your post.
Cyro Xero :
There.

Klutch: I edited the post from Zero to Xero. :/ and I plan on going Army too. But because of the precinct bounds, or whatever you want to call it, I have to wait until July 15th, and then I can enlist from where I am at.

I was done with Afghanistan back in October. I'm not sure if I made a thread about it or not. I'm at Ft. Lewis, WA now (and a year from today I'm getting out of the Army after 15 years).

thing1 : Your dad will be able to call you. I don't know where he's going but if the base is large enough there will be more than enough phones available. There's almost always a computer/phone building where you either call your family and friends or email/reach them on FB. The PX will sell phone cards to use. some $25 for 200 minutes or something. His unit should actually mandate that all soldiers get in touch with family within the first couple weeks of being there, and periodically after that.

So there should be no excuse as to why you wouldn't hear back from him in some way or form. Where is he going, by the way?

Cyro Xero : No, I don't. All I know right now is that he will be over there for a year, and he left a day or two ago.

He's most likely in Kuwait right now, doing processing stuff. From there he'll fly out to Afs***tystan, depending on the delays of the flights. And there will be some. He has a chance to call you there as well.

Cyro Xero : No. No Kuwait. I do know that he went straight to Afghanistan, and is being processed there. I just want to hear from him, for some reason. 

This is not normal... feelings, for me.

I find it hard to believe he'd go straight there without stopping in Kuwait first for a day. Either way, he'll have opportunities to get a hold of you.
