Who you meet
Was in an office registering my vehicle today when I met an Iraqi national getting an ID card to come on post regularly. He's a former Brigadier General in the Iraqi Army. Now, he's putting a business together & will have a store here on camp. You have to be proud of their spirit, we just crushed their army and here he is selling to ours.
If ya can't beat 'em, join 'em! Right?
If you want to know why I have so much respect for our military look at this.
"From this day to the ending of the world,
but you in it shall be remembered ?
You few, you happy few, you band of brothers?"
Men and women to be proud of.
My tribute to the soldiers who went out the gate to stop the guys who were tossing mortars at us yesterday.

Yes old Willy boy had it right. Take care and keep your head up in the corners. This is Emy's friend Mark ( from chilly Canada). Have a good one.
Cheers
