Merry Christmas everyone.

stewy37 said:Merry Christmas everyone. If you see Ronn after I post this, tell him Matt and Kelly say Merry Christmas from Afghanistan. We've got less than a month left before being back in the states. I'm going to try and make it down to the main academy before I go on leave. Hope your toe and shoulder heal.
My Christmas wishes are that everyone has a happy holiday and that I don't turn into an icicle over here.

May Santa bring us all healthy bodies and smarter minds for the mat next year!
:icon_cry2 thank you...triso said:Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays guys!
May everyone have a healthy and insightful new year on the mat. I hope everyone sticks with it, and stays injury free.
Grappling wish: I'd like my shoulder to friggen heal up already, and for the pain in my knee to go away. Thanks Santa.

jjmuaythaiguy said:Merry Christmas to you, your family, the local braddahs and sistas serving in the military. We love and miss you guys in Hawaii. One of Relson's blue belts is in Afganistan trying to organize a grappling training or even a tournament at a air force base. If you can see where he is (somehow) check for Staff Sergent Derek Tang. He is on the security force for the hangers there.
Relson's main academy is the only one that is open. Maybe Aiea too? Ronn closed the Kaneohe one but all associations and affiliates can come to the main. We had Kaneohe and Kahalu'u team (Steve Van Ness's guys) over last night and it was a blast!
I will pass on the message to Ronn, thanks for the well wishes.
stewy37 said:Wow! I was unaware Ronn closed the academy. Guess I will be driving across island more than I had planned. No dice on finding Derek. I'm at a pretty small base with only a handful of air force personnel. Only a few more weeks here. take it easy.
