Newb from TN

TnPreacher · 10-30-2009, 07:05 AM

I'm just a hard working country boy from the deep back woods of East Tennessee. I was raised on hard work, and southern food. I'm a U.S. Marine currently stationed in Okinawa Japan, but I've only got a few days left then I'm heading to California for the rest of my enlistment. I currently own two trucks that get driven regualry, a 1978 Ford F-150 4x4 shortbed thats been beat on alot, and my new dd a Chevy 2500hd Duramax on 35" m/t's, soon to have EFI live, a new suncoast stage 5, and some other stuff. I grew up working a farm and graduated from a small high school. I'm an ASE certified Technician, with an Automotive degree and work on helicopter engines in the Marine Corps. Any questions let me know. Here are some pics to give you guys an idea of who I am.

Coming in from a PT session

And on leave last Dec. unharnessing our Belgian Big John

And sitting with my baby. I haven't even gotten home to my new truck yet.

welcome to forum, marine. thanks for your service! sounds like you got some pretty sweet trucks! also sounds like you know your way around em pretty well, but if you get hung up, theres a lot of guys here with a wealth of knowledge that love to have their brains picked.

Welcome to the forum TnPreacher.

Hope that Pendleton not 29p's,
that's no-where-land without the trees.

Nice state though (mine)

You guys on some sort of quota exchange program?
Seems like 12-15 guys I see go there gets 1 back.

Welcome to the forum. Sure glad to see you. Another new member NOT from TX. Thanks for your service. I understand Okinawa is not a bad tour, and has some pretty nice perks to it. So do you have your trucks in Japan with you? Will they be coming back home to CA, then TN?

That's funny, I had never heard of 29 Palms reffered to as 29 Stumps. So I assume the trees or have been cut down?
