Subject: File from meeting today

Hi,
thank you for showing me the fairground attraction outside your Sencia-window, in the meeting today, (even if it puzzels me a bit why you interrruped the meeting to show me this).
But anyway.
I'm sending a copy of the file you wanted, (but which I myself needed since it had employer contact-information on, that I wanted to keep myself).
You asked me about my conscription-service.
It's not that easy to explain, but this was a though conscription-service, in which we did the same skiing-competitions etc., as British special(?) troops, which were on winter-training in Norway.
So my army service was though even if I wasn't a volountere, it was only conscription service.
I was a slim youth, so I had enough with completing this though service, and didn't try to be a coroporal/sergant, or anything.
After this, I was in the mobilisation-army, in Norway, for a few years.
Then I was transfered, (after a 3 week rehersal), to a new Home Defence-unit, in Oslo.
This was some 'new age'-stuff, I think, in which the Home Defence became like the army.
It was called 'Støtte-området HV02 2018', 'Support-area'.
And is now called 'Derby', after an allied operation in Norway, behind nazi lines, in world war II.
But this home defence company, had a platoon called 12.7-platoon.
And that's Browning 12.7 machine guns with a special ammunition called multi-purpose, which are exploding bullets with high-explosives etc.
So I sometimes wonder if this Home-Defence unit was a kind of muslim or mafia or something 'coupe de etat' in Norway.
Because when the Home Defence changes and is like the Army, then something is wrong, I thing.
But this was beside the agenda, some of it, unfortunately.
Just something I had on my mind.
I'll do the job-seach and the reminders, untill the next meeting.
Like I said in the meeting, I also think some of my IT-skills, like Web Design, should be on top of the CV.
After all, I've made a website, from scratch,
www.johncons.org , where the meny-bar, at least, should be up to date, what is it one call it, the meny-bar should be almost state of the art i web-design, at the moment, I think.
Just something I had on my mind.
Yours sincerely,
Erik Ribsskog
