Thank you, TeamCaffee, for sketching that out for me. Now that I see it in writing, I can make sense enough to describe it to my folks. Although I knew it would work, because so many teams do it, I couldn't explain it for lack of practical experience. Chrissie

So, how does this work in practical terms? Remembering my noob status, could a team respond with a typical day that describes who is where? I know this may be kind of silly, but I'm just trying to get some kind of mental picture. I'm having a hard time explaining to my family how this works...

Soooo, how is it that as team drivers we get to see the country if we're stuck in the sleeper berth? How much time do you actually get to spend in the passenger seat enjoying the view and chatting with your partner, spending time together? (Somebody said no question was too silly, didn't they?)

As a wet-behind-the-ears newbie, I don't get it. If I'm sitting in the passenger seat, I'm not driving. How could I possible be on duty or driving without a steering wheel in my hands? I'm reading a book, enjoying the scenery or listening/arguing to talk radio with my husband. Somebody...

Thanks for the offer, Phil. I'll tell my husband about it. His job in Afghanistan allows very little time for personal surfing on the Net, so I'm doing all the research and legwork. The brochure is great, very informative, hitting the salient points. Excellent! I'm printing a copy to take...

Thanks, Phil and all. My husband emailed me that he's reading this forum as well and really appreciates all the input. We're due to meet in Rome later next month for 10 days where we'll be able to discuss all the options and come up with an exit strategy for him, and a plan for the next couple...

Thanks, Paul..We've been talking about getting trained in the t/t as well as the s/t. We'd like to have as many options as possible, that way we're versatile, and can do anything.

Thanks for all your input, folks. The more I read on EO, the more I'm sure I don't know anything, but I know who to ask! :)

Thanks for the encouragement. I agree with the idea that what's right is relative. I guess I'm thinking more along the lines of avoiding the really bad situations. Are there schools you wouldn't send your best friend or your worst enemy to? Or types of schools - you know, schools that do...

Hello All, I've been lurking for a couple of weeks, reading all over the forum. My husband, Wayne, has worked for 3 years for Halliburton, in Afghanistan, and wants to come home. I am a former Ambulatory Surgery Center Administrator/RN, and we have no children to be home for. We are very...
