Leaving BAF-f-l-e-d

"My team woke up early eagerly anticipating our departure from BAF with our refurbished MRAPs. We knew we still had a lot of work ahead of us so everyone quickly packed their gear. There was one unwelcome surprise; the main shower house was closed so we had to utilize the small ones on the opposite end of the encampment. This was only a minor setback.
The contractors were still actively repairing the MRAPs. Our AF mechanic identified a problem with the engine starter and the ECM issues were being resolved. In the interim, the team worked on preparing the MRAPs for travel. Our AF ETT Team leader and a Navy Petty Officer were working on the antennas, while the rest of us were preparing to turn in the old HMMVWs. These vehicles did their time and like old soldiers they were being laid to rest. In reality, they will probably be refurbished and sold as part of the Foreign Military Sales program."
