I'll still never forget when the Bosnia crisis escalated way back when. I was told to pack my bags and head to Norfolk VA. Meet the F-18's out at sea and be a support role. I worked on the F-18 hornets as a radar and weapons technician. We were given little notice. Say our goodbyes and get going.

When I returned home months later, I find my credit was stained by a $30 unpaid phone bill. Ummm...I'm in the NAVY out at sea supporting fighter jets. When I built my first house years later, this was questioned. I had to write a report to the bank explaining the $30 late bill with proof of where I was. That was a total mess! I guess rather than say goodbye to loved ones, I should have written letters to the phone company.

Thanks Michelle! I'll see if this still shows up in my report with your links. That was a while back. Lessons learned though... It don't matter if your fighting for the nation, if a bill sits in a mailbox for months, your credit will be stained. I lived in Jacksonville Florida back then, thanks Bell South! I hope by now that is resolved :)

Good info. I'll try this out.
