Thanks Steve, It looks great, now my pocket feels really empty...lol. Thats cool that you went to tech school here, which school did you attend. This is my 3rd trip to WF. Twice for training and now I have the pleasure of molding young minds as an instructor. I am actually a Navy Seabee but I am teaching basic plumbing to joint services. This sure beats the heck out of return trips to the sandbox, although some days the weather is same. Bryan
 
Plumbing? Wow. I signed on to be a plumber. I was a plumbers helper all through high school and went to votech taking it for two years also in High School.

When I was looking to join up my two picks were either Navy or Air Force. My grandfather was Navy so I was leaning there but they didn't want to let me have plumbing. The AF said they would so I joined that. Two weeks before leaving for basic training my recruiter informs me that the AF decided they really needed me as a dental tech. which was exactly what the Navy was trying to get me to do and I said no way. Of course I objected all the way to Wichita Falls where dental school was and of course I met plumbers there right across the way that said they were supposed to be dental techs. Go figure.

Anyway, once I realized dental was where all the pretty gals were (I married one of them :D) I quit fussin'.

I was at the dental school.

Thats funny, I went school with the Navy DT's (which no longer exsist) we all berthed together. When did you go to tech school? I was fortunate to get UT, they are really overmanned right now. I have been doing this for 12 years. In the Navy we do both plumbing and HVAC, the AF keeps them seperate and they spend alot more time in school. As a Seabee you are more of a jack of all trades, where as the AF is more specialised. Although I work in all aspects of construction, I have actually done very little plumbing...but I do enjoy the work. Right now Seabees are more combat troops than actual construction...we build contigency type buildings and forward operating bases. Often times we are the first ones there sleeping in the dirt until we can establish a solid enough base for the Army and AF....which usually means we have to have the McDonalds and the Holiday Inn in place before they will step foot in camp....just kidding (sort of) But I have been in some pretty hairy situations. Survivorman ain't got squat on me...
 
Well the short wait is finally over. My new and improved para found its way back home and straight into my pocket...It looks great and rides in the pocket great. Completely out of sight. Great job Steve and thanks for the prompt service. I really appreciate the attention to detail
 
Glad it got there today as I figured it would. Also, if you're happy I'm happy. Thanks for trusting me with your favorite EDC folder. :thumbup: Enjoy my friend.
