DAY 41: Goodbye, Part II

Thu, 6 October 2005

The last few days have just been hectic. With airlift getting cancelled right and left, my second chalk is not able to make it up to Manas. Originally, they were scheduled to depart one hour after the first chalk. Instead, they end up stuck here for two more days as scheduled departures pan out and I end up camping at the Pax terminal for more than 12 hours straight. I’m now working on Plan G (7th version) and the many issues to ensure they board the plane. Finally, after 48 hours the second group gets on and I wave good bye. Job well done, and I finally hit the bed for some much needed zzz’s…
