*Attn: Chris Murphy*
 

Welcome to your official thread. Everyone that wants to say hi and check up on Chris can do so here in this conveniently located thread.




***I pm'd you a while back, but you still haven't looked at it yet. So I figured this would get your attention. :D

How are things going? Are you in the sandbox yet?
I see you occasionally trolling the boards. Hope all is well.

Heh, he's been *trolling* the boards for as long as I've known him :lol:

Re: *Attn: Chris Murphy*

Oops. Dave Chappelle reference. I got to start watching that show more.

Yes you do. That's cold blooded..

I think I'll go crawl under a rock and die now.

Good luck with that.

Make sure there are no spiders hiding under those rocks.

:P I guess I would have better luck with a car, than a rock.

hey Chris!!!!!


hope all is good :D

Hi Chris.
So, are you taking some pictures?

Hey Chris. I hope you are enjoying Hybrid.

Show them fools how SECCS rolls.

stay safe!

Hey Chris,

Hope all is well. Let us know how you're doing.

Stay Safe!

Murphy, Is that you ?
 

Everytime i see this Thread I think of this :

Re: Murphy, Is that you ?
 

Hey! That's my joke!

Ohh Wow I have never seen that Thread.. OK ok I am sorry If I "stole" it.. lol

Hey!!! Atleast We are one the same wave length :wink: :lol:

Thanks for the thread Dee. As some of you know that made the meeting last night I'm here for a few days. Going back Sunday morning. The place I'm at right now (Ft. Sill OK ) sucks real ass, They have us on pretty much lockdown if we are lucky we get a day of every other week or so. We are doing lost of strange training, some 2 star wants everyone to know 11B (infantry) stuff. So yup I'm learning how to kick in doors, clear buildings, beat down suspected terrorists and all that.
When I get some off time I wear the SECCS hoodie and people have a hard time getting it, but when they do they like it. Oh yes the plan is for the unit to be in afghanistan by march 12. If people have lost the last post I made about my leaving and my new email here it is again christopher.r.murphy@us.army.mil that will reach me anywhere I will post an address to ship things to me in Afghanistan when I get it. A care package with seccs stickers for tagging equipment would be good.
anyway all I will take care of myself, I will keep my head down. All of you take care of yourselves too.

I've go a video to post but not sure if I can. anyone want it so they can post it for me? if so put up the e-mail address. pics to come

If you see anybody that looks like this,

http://www.counterfrag.com/screensho...review/002.jpg

shoot first and ask questions later. :wink:

some more

Damn, that is a mighty big gun you got there son... :lol:

Keep that Flack Jacket on, and stay low...

We'll set you up with a care package.

That gun looks sweet.

M2's rock.

Shoot some belted .50 for me, Chris!

:lol: That's bustin' me up. 'Course, that CS terrorist actually looks way more like our guys than the bad guys... ya'll military folk are looking pretty scary w/ that huge .50 and the flak jackets etc!

Anyway, it's good to hear from ya Chirs, keep safe! (Also, see if you can't get a little vid of you practicing w/ that MG!! :twisted:)

I think that he has one that he is trying to post.

Stickified so we can more easily use this thread to keep in touch w/ Chris while he's overseas.

Thanks. That is a great idea.

up date all.. We did our unit validation we are all good to go to war and do what ever.. my plain ride is out of here on the 8th of march. Not much time left. I will keep in touch.

I see murphy online!

What is new chris?

After he catches up to today's shenanigans I'm sure he'll be posting an update. Say, 45 minutes? :lol:

Where should we send a care package?

What do you need?

He leaves from Oaklahoma in about 7 days IIRC. So if we were to send something, it'd prolly get there just after he left. I doubt he's got an Afghani address yet.

We'll send him some car mags and SECCS stickers as soon as he gets there!

well not exactly 45 mins...things have slowed down a good deal since we validated. Unit is packed up, choppers are being broken down to be loaded onto C-5's. Most people are on a 4 day pass (the one I was on before). I'm taking some stupid field sanitation class..learning about all kinds of sickness that you can get in the field and what not...my fav. as of now is still "beaver fever". Thats the slang term use for what you can get from drinking water from a stream if you don't know whats craping in it up from you. still on plan for me to leve on an 18 hour flight on the 8-9 of this month. Some big official thing on Thurs. for sending us off. Pretty stupid.

*edit* I do have the address in afghanistan, I just forgot to bring it with me. I'll have it next time I'm on.

I bought him a SRIC shirt too, so we can sent that too.

thanks for the thought DEE but no civies are allowed in country.

We'll get some good stuff to you like Scott said...

You should probably tell us what not to send as well. Don't want to get you in trouble... There is probably a web site that tells us somewhere...

Do you have a DVD player? We can send you the WRCs or whatever you want on DVD...

For reals? So can we sent anything? Twinkies, HoHo's, stickers?

Too bad Choco-Tacos won't survive the journey :(

I'll find something else to throw in there.

Civies = Civilian outer clothes...

Food and junk are OK, as well as I think socks and underwear... Can undershirts have anything on them, on only pure white?

No alcohol either if I recall correctly.

Thanks people. we will be told what we can and can not have sent to us this week..I know its no booze in country..but I need to loose my gut anyway. For things like DVD players and what not we do have a PX that we can get stuff like that. Thats way to expensive to send anyway. Now wrc on a burned dvd would kick ass, that and AMA superbike series :wink: Hell motor sports related things would kick ass. I'm not thinking of what to get until I get in the swing. But one good rumor I have herd is that they have LAN line internet connections at the FOB's (forward operating bases) which I'll be spending most of my time at.

Let us know what you want/need.

I found one list so far... I think no matter what, under his name/address, we should put "Attn: For Female Soldier" on it! :lol: J/K
