So I leave this weekend for Iraq with the Army. It'll be my first trip there, and deployment #2. I managed to post often from Afghanistan and hopefully I'll get some cool pics, although I'm not sure how many I'll share. Should be an interesting year!

be careful bill... seriously come home soon man...

Update

Be careful, Bill. I have several friends in Iraq, and I'm none too happy about it, but so far they've all come home safe. Watch your back and come home safe - this is not a cause worth dying for IMHO.

Why threaten Bill?

I didn't mean to be threatening at all. I meant I wanted him to be careful, like my friends in Iraq. I guess my comments were inartfully worded, but you've read pretty much the polar opposite of what I meant into them. I have edited them for a bit more clarity.

Frankly I thought most members as senior as you know I served in the AF for six years, during most of my tenure here - the last thing I'd do is threaten a service member, especially for no particular reason.

God bless you! Thank you very much for your service. I have a friend who's finally out, after three trips over. It's wonderful to have him home safely. I hope all goes well for you while you're there.

Good luck and stay safe. How long is the deployment? 1 year?

Did you get to bring your awesome scope?

 

[SlitheryDee]

Update - Here I am, and what lovely weather it is outside. They have wireless internet here for like $60 a month, but its painfully slow.

Sucker.

Great for Iraq. But now Afghanistan is going to go to sh!t.
