Thanks; we'll see how tired we are and how accommodating the rest of LHR might be before I try doing that. Seems like the guys who've actually seen the ***** firsthand ought to have dibs rather than a stateside weekend warrior like myself, but it's really nice to hear that they're allowing servicemen/women this perk.
We're actually heading to Edelweiss Lodge and Resort, the AFRC in Garmisch. Check out the web site at edelweisslodgeandresort.com. They have R&R packages for folks on leave from OIF, Afghanistan, etc... pretty nice packages for people who have spent some time in some pretty crappy places. I am impressed with the facilities -- this is our second trip there. VERY nice accommodations and service.
Thanks again!
