Tom is working on staying sane for the remainder of his time before he returns to Canada for a break. Apparently the days cannot come quick enough. He sent me a picture of him over in Afghanistan because he had won the Golden Hammer award one day.

I have not edited it, for I feel it would wash the army from it. So, please enjoy the full-on army man post that was sent to me. The story goes like this: "This weeks Hammer Award winner is none other than our Maint O, Tom Moir. He had the dubious distinction of not knowing his ABC'’s. The story goes:.. Once upon a time their was a young Maintenance Officer who after being dropped off by the big yellow bus from school, he ran in to tell the ET how he was now leaning the alphabet. So to reward the cute young fella, the ET took him out for lunch, where hanging on the wall of the high-class eatery in KAF was a sign. Tom decided to show off his new found skills but thought he should read it to himself first to ensure accuracy and then all of a sudden he screamed out loud, "“OH NO”." He started yelling, "ET, ET, I have to get rid of all my DVD including the Little Mermaid!" Of course the ET was a little perplexed as to why this would have to happen, and he laughed when young Tom showed him the sign and it read DVD'’s Maim and Kill. He finally told him he had gotten his letters mixed up and that what he thought was a V was really a U. So for all it was a happy ending with Tom not having to get rid of his Little Mermaid DVD and learned a valuable lesson to pay attention when at school. Congrats to this weeks hammer award winner Captain Tom Moir."
A few spelling mistakes never hurt anyone.
This is how the guys stay sane over there. And I must say that when I saw Tom in the picture, I was more than pleasantly surprised to see how beefy he looks.
And I CAN say that. :o)
