My Daughter just touched down in Puerto Rico. In between 2 tropical storms.

She's only gone for a week, I can understand how you must feel.:excruciating:

B-) You should have sprung for a ticket so she could have ridden on an airplane. Probably take her a week to shed that wind blown look, and then she needs to fly back.

What the heck is PCSing

In my google search, it was defined quite nicely and on point with the story in the very first result.

Mr. File, Get on the skype train and things will be a bit better. It's not the same as in person but just talking and seeing each others face really helps.

I was in Kitzingen '79-81. Too young too appreciate the opportunity to travel, old enough to appreciate the world's finest beer!
Where will she be stationed?

I was too young also. I was in a Lance Missile unit in Hanau from 1975-1978, the 1/32FA.

Definitely

Definitely get on the Skype train. Good not only for you, but her too. You can turn the camera around at the table and it will almost seem like she is sitting there with you.
