The food! All I want to do is finally eat some great food. Secondly, catch up on my sleep. I’ve spent 7-8 months with an irregular sleep schedule so I want to reel that back in. Lastly, HAVE FUN. Go to a bar, go to a club, drive the coast. Just really unwind.

I always look forward to seeing my family and friends after a deployment. Connecting with them and sharing stories from my experiences is one of my favorite parts. I also look forward to just relaxing and catching up on all of the little things I missed while I was away.

Spending time with my family, a nice shower, and home cooked meal.

The money I saved and using it to hopefully better my life.
