I am curious what you think is the biggest impediment to your job? Do you need more people, technology, or perhaps policy changes?

Holy shit! No wonder moral is down.

Not sure if you will be back on, but just wanted to say how much I appreciate the willingness to discuss your war experiences. My father-in-law was a Marine Captain who was awarded the Bronze Star in the South Pacific and would tend to shy away from talking directly about his experiences in the war. We had some wonderful discussions about our shared military service, but mostly about the routine day to day stuff. He passed away a few years back, and I often think about all the memories (good and bad) that he took with him.

So thank you for passing on your memories and sharing your experiences with all of us. It is an honor sir!

Throwing in my vote for Gokyo! Almost same trek as base camp without quite so many people. We woke up at 2am and climbed to the top of Gokyo Ri and watched the sun come up over Everest at just under 18,000 feet. Unbelievable views!

Same here. I normally go for the heat, but I like the flavor of the Taco Bell mild sauce.
