I am interested in what our RP population is doing this Christmas? With the fuel prices lowering considerably back home in the states, are you traveling or staying home? What family traditions will you be adhering to?

I feel very lucky to have my family alongside my military family this season and we will be traveling.

I remember back in the 1990's when I was in Germany. I think the going rate for pulling Guard Duty was at least $50..sometimes up to $100. Figured that I had nothing better to do.


But to answer your question Sergeant Major, I typically spend Christmas volunteering at either a human shelter, or more often lately, an animal shelter because I am a veterinary nurse

I think for every DA Corporal made, a CSM angel gets his wings.

CSM Michael J. Uhlig, I plan to stay at home, here in Maryland, and enjoy the four-day weekend that President Obama gave us (federal workers).

I will be doing police call at the house. Christmas is a very messy affair. Twin boys and a whole platoon of nieces, nephews, cousins and adopted relatives is more than enough to keep me busy!
