got to spend it with your Airman did too!! I just want to say that I'm so glad
that I have you ladies, and this blog. I have a wonderful surprise for you ladies,
and I will let you know what it is soon enough. ;) I will be flying back to San
Antonio to spend time with my Airman at the end of February, I'm excited to
get the tickets ordered so I can start my countdown again. Sorry I didn't write
during exodus, but I couldn't bear to spend time doing anything else but spend
time with my wonderful Airman while he was home. I dropped him off at the
airport yesterday afternoon and the tears in his eyes nearly killed me. It hurts
to know that once again I am going to go weeks without seeing him, but I
am truly glad that I have had the honor of experiencing life as an USAF
girlfriend. It's a great experience. I'm sure by now all of you know that D
has a year and a half remote deployment to South Korea, which is scary
enough. While he was home we weighed our options, to get married before
he leaves or not to. To get married while he is still in tech, or to do it after he
gets out. I want to know your opinions ladies. What paperwork is neccesary
to fill out if you get married to someone in the Air Force? What do we need
to know to make life a little easier on us? Anyone who knows or just wants
to give me an opinion, email me at: diaryofanairforcegirlfriend@aol.com or

Here are some pictures from his time back home:
I hate to tell you this but having orders to Korea is NOT a deployment. A deployment is to Iraq or Afghanistan. MANY go to Korea with or without their spouses. It is called OCONUS Duty Station.
ReplyDeleteIt is a remote deployment AKA an unaccompanied tour.
DeleteKorea is not a deployment. Not that long ago families were allowed to go with their sponsor in the military to Korea. I have friends that have been stationed there. I am currently stationed with my husband overseas and it is not a deployment... I'm not trying to be rude, but being stationed overseas is a very different thing than being stationed in a combat zone. I am sure you will miss him, but he will be safe.
DeleteI'm not trying to be rude, but in his orders along with nearly 2,000 other Airman it is listed as a remote deployment. Yes it is not a combat zone, but that is what it is called, a remote deployment.
