******UPDATE******
I just wanted to give all of you a heads up as soon as possible. Yesterday I was tasked to deploy in July to the Middle East for the seventh time. I'll be gone for 6 months and unfortunately during that time I won't be building any tanks. I'll continue to take orders and build tanks until June. Once June hits my son will be on summer vacation and I'll be shutting down to spend time with the family before I leave. I do plan to continue building in January when I return. I know this is a huge inconvenience for many of you and I'm truly sorry.
If you have any questions or want to work on tank designs while I'm deployed you can always contact me here or by email to [email protected]
As always, a big thank you to International Waters and all my great customers and friends for their support.

I wanted to make sure everything was final before I posted this. Due to DOD cutbacks I was offered the opportunity of early retirement back in January and I applied for it. I found out today it was accepted and I will start terminal leave the first week of June. The next couple months are going to move very fast between out processing the Air Force and moving again (hopefully for the last time).
The good news is I now won't have a 6 month down time. The bad news is I'll have to take a small break from building tanks a little sooner. I have to concentrate on lining up a future career and moving my family to a new city. I will continue building tanks for through the middle of April and will then be taken a two or three month break depending on how things go. My goal is to be employed and moved by the end of June.
I truly enjoy this hobby and due plan to keep building tanks after I'm settled in with next chapter.
Thanks for all your support

****UPDATE****
I'm now back in Wichita Kansas and recently accepted a new career offer with a great company. I'm currently in the process of buying a home and if everything goes as planned I should be moved in and ready to start building tanks within the next 2 months. The transition from military to civilian life has taken a little longer than I expected and I apologize for the delay to all of you.
Other than some slight delays everything is going great. I'm extremely fortunate to have found a new career so quickly and that we have a great family to stay with during this transition.
Thanks for all your support
