LOL π I have never slept in the snow, but have been around it enough to know that I don’t want to π Thankfully, I have never literally been thrown in the snow on a freezing night, but I feel like I have figuratively had that experience, and you definitely did with the way they treated you on L1.
It is humbling to be honored and recognized for my having absolutely nailed Theater Security Cooperation (TSC) in Mongolia.
