Is he having TDR withdrawal, Ken? The trouble with finding interesting diesel stuff to send is that I find it here, just as you probably do. That and the fact i don't think there has been much good news for diesel owners since ULSD and other EPA crap has hit us so hard. Heck, I consider the 24 valve to be the beginning of the downfall of the Cummins motor. Followed by the destruction of the NV5600 manufacturing tools and facility. Now dodge is actually wimping their trucks out even more with independent rear suspension and AAM axles and more computerized garbage.
He must have really been in good shape to waltz right through the physical regimine so quickly. The best advice i can give him is to be extremely wary of bars on or near the base where females of extremely low morals wait like black widows to trap and trick young men. That's no joke. My nephew failed to heed that very advice and quickly found himself "having to marry" some bimbo (a very kind description) who, it later turned out, was already pregnant with some unknown person's child. Talk about tanking a military career, and his young life, in a hurry! All she wanted was his military paycheck (which an ex-wife with a dependent will get before the soldier ever sees it) and a very fast divorce once she had that nailed down. Only a paternity test saved him, but it cost him thousands of lawyer dollars he did not have and completely disrupted his time in the USMC.
