I am Alive. I have been in this country for too long. We are constantly out on missions or doing stupid shit. It sucks when politics, heart of the people, chain of command, the enemy, and murphy's law is all against you. We are doing what we can though our hands are bound and are blindfolded. My sergeant was shot by a sniper a couple...

A cold beer and real sleep sounds pretty damn good. Can I add a beautiful woman to wake up next to?
If you get a chance, give me a shout at work in the next few days. I can't do much about the cold beer, good sleep, or beautiful woman, but I can probably bring a bunch of pizzas down your way.

Well I am back in Alaska but only for a week or so. The Brigade I am with is being extended in Iraq so I have to go back for a couple more months to take care of a situation. It really sucks and is unfoir to those that are married. I bought a new Dodge Dakota that is black and various firearms but now...

I am leaving Iraq finally. In 4 days I am on a plane home. I cannot wait it is so close. All I have to do is customs and preparing our vehicle to leave and that is all. Right now we are waiting for our escort to get with the rest of the unit. I can't wait to get back to the states...............

We are leaving this month to go back home. We all can't wait to see our families. It has been far too long. It is going to be a long flight back. Though we miss our families...

oh christ! they are huge! i would actually shit myself!
Nothing much going on here....
Which is good and bad.
Slow usually means safe.
Fast usually means really not safe.
The internet is slow and disconnect from time to time.
Hopefully I get some packages today on the shipment up here. I think I have some movies coming. There isn't any thing else going on. I hope you all are well.

I watch a half moon rise behind the glittering lights of hostile cities below. I'm pulling guard again on a Stryker mortar vehicle on top of a mountain. Police vehicles with thier blue flashing lights dart around partolling the area. Smoke rises from my real Cuban cigar and fades away with the breeze. On top of this mountain...

You paint the picture perfectly. I don't know how to describe the feeling of sitting on a lonely hilltop - the peace - the vigilance - the sights - sounds - and tastes.
The IKSS you guys have was built by my last company and designed at the place I worked before that.

Well I'm here. This place looks like Bakersfield in summer. I may not have internet for a while but please write. I am eating A-Rations which is the equivilent of dog food. I haven't gotten much sleep at all. I can't wait to get home. I can't wait to eat real food. I love lamp. I hope we leave this place soon. Viva Colombia!!! I...

She tried to grab it while I was brushing my teeth. It was a quick move. The thing is the tank top was like very well hanged, so she couldn't take it.
I saw her doing a quick strange move, but didn't pay much attention to it. Then when we were about to leave, she turned around and enetered the room, I came behind her. She got a bit nervious and said: "Oh well, let's go". I said: "Are you sure? Aren't you leaving something?" She replied: "No no, it's fine". So we left.
At night, when I got home from the university I saw half hook broken on the floor; the other half was trapped between the other shirts. And obviously it all made sense then.
