    I was a 3521, and no, I did not go to the sandbox...everytime I volunteered to go some where I got rejected because my ex-hubby was in the same shop and they would send him instead..my master sgt actually told me I had to stay behind to take care of my daughter and was sending the hubby instead. I didn't even get to go to CAX because of that guy..they always sent the hubby. Ah, well...
    Take care!
