Jeremy, tell me if I'm overstepping here...Andy, you could get registered and fall in with another company. You'd be with them during formations and would sleep in their street, but could visit with your pards while in camp.
Tech trouble.....double post.

Not at all Matt. I want Andy to take part if he can find another home. I am very excited about this event and very happy how registrartion went. But a selfish part of me is bummed Andy did not make it on the Co K list. We have been at or near each other sides at almost every campaigner style event we have been to in the last severl years.
Miss ya pard and looking forward to your wedding.
