Welcome to the site! Your new bike will definitely be something to look forward to after your deployment.
Hopefully, following your redeployment you will PCS to warmer climes so you can enjoy a longer riding season than what Fairbanks has to offer.
My son is with 1/40Cav ABN (Spartans) at Ft Richardson, was recently 'stop-lost', and will be deploying soon for his third tour. During his last tour he was considering buying a Harley V-Rod thru AAFES, but the selection of bikes was sparse. Instead, I told him to 'hold that thought', and after his unit returned last December, he took Christmas leave and found a 2008 105th Anniv V-Rod next to the Christmas tree with his name on it. As a father of a soldier, words cannot describe the feeling during those rare opportunities when we can ride together.
You guys are 'chit-hot', the best of the best that this country has to offer, another "Greatest Generation" in the making. Stay safe, come home to us, and enjoy your new bike. You deserve it!
