Thanks guys...
Been home for a bit now but just got internet hooked back up and moving back into another residence.
Still trying to learn to shower again... got used to using water bottles/buckets, kinda miss the fresh aroma of foot rot of 15 other guys piled into a tent with ya, and I still run out every morning and coat myself with dust before heading to work.
Though it sucked over there I was very happy to get out of there before it got cold... it went from 120 to 74 one night and I thought I was gonna freeze to death. I then spoke to a local who said it gets in the 20s during the winter.. YIKES.
Also, on a serious note, I would like to remind everyone to remember the fallen. Many guys lost their lives out there fighting and they were great guys.
Anybody wants to see some pics of the happenings you can find images by googling Operation Khanjar.
Take care all
