Canada in Afghanistan

[Darrell Zinck]

Hi Carmen

Thanks. And thanks to for the kind messages and PM's while I was gone. It goes a long way to helping the troops feel wanted and appreciated. They're doing a great job and need the chance to finish what we started or we'll be contributing to the country falling back into ruin and anarchy. Also we certainly risk embarrasement in front of the whole world for cutting and running. (See my Layton cartoon posting around here somewhere!!) That would be a shame I couldn't live with as a Canadian soldier.

Hi Geoff

Thanks Geoff, good to be back. Acclimating isn't too bad as it's been warm here but I do find the humidity a bit much. I shouldn't complain, I know. Especially after I start 34 days leave on Sat!!


Hi Wayne

Nope, no relation I know of. Your friend "Roy" does sound like one of us tho'!! Probably 13th Cousins or something. My Clan is from down Bridgewater way and Dad was 40 yrs in the Air Force. I have an Aunt in Hilden too but she's not a Zinck. Be there Sat as a matter of fact; looking for a new VW.

regards
Darrell
