Stay safe,Good afternoon Guys,
We had the nastiest sand storm last night that i coudn't see anything even my own hand. Took me 2 hours to find my sleeping area normally took 10 mins. This morning when i woke up my lung hurt so bad it feel like i just finish smoking 2 packs of cigs back to back. Many of my Marines show up at work with bruises and cut by either busting their behind into the ditch or walk into barb wire. BTW, this is their storm season so more to come. I will try to take some picture so you have an idea.

Demonic, thank you I got promoted on May 1 by the Commanding General. I took some picture but i can't get access to my photo bucket here so i have to send it to my friend in the other forum to post it up. I hope one of them see this thread and will post the pic here as well.
I don't mind the desert, i don't mind the heat but the sand storm is something else. The living condition in Iraq and Afghanistan nowadays are much better compare to 2003 when we first send troops over. I have no complain, i am glad to be here even though i miss my family but this is what Marine do.

The only part that get to me the most is sending "Fallen Angel" home. I hate fighting against coward...

Huge congrats and Hooah (or, "ooh-rah" to translate it in Marine parlance) to you Staff Sergeant, from another Staff Sergeant in Baghdad. Stay safe, keep your head down, and when we're both back Stateside we'll have to meet up for some beers to swap lies, er, "tales" about time downrange and reef stuff, too.

Guys, i am still alive and in one piece of course. I am currently in New Orleans, Louisiana and will be stuck here for another 2 years before i can ask for another move. Anyhow, i have decided to let go of my tank and all the equipment so i post it craigslist today hopefully i can get them out of my garage and into a good hand. I love the tank and all the equipments. but future don't look too good for me consider i have two kids and soon we may looking into purchasing a house. I will get back into the hobby just don't know when. I will stop by once in a while to check in and see how you all doing. Take care....
