The continuing tales of Army's adventures at war in Iraq...

[Slimm Jimm]

Well, Guysdadam, a couple other kids in my class saw that pic, and have decided that there is no way they are going into the military.

Keep up the good work. I have some friends heading over there on the next rotation, so make it safe for 'em. and thank you for keeping us safe and sending us honest info. Stay alive.

P.S. My respect for you guys just jumped with that picture.

Hey, if you make it into Bagdad, and happen to find some Tomahawk wreckage with with some chicken bones nearby, let me know. One of our resident grease monkeys hade to do a voodoo chicken dance to get the damn thing to launch from its canister on the second night of festivities last March. And just remember one thing-DUCK!

[Army]

omg! i guess that doesn't count as pr0n then. heck, might as well send an abercrombie catalog even. i've been paranoid about sending maxim over there in fear it would get confiscated.

Hey base buddy, where are you at? I live and work in the big metal hangar close to the tower/firestation. Just outside the airfield wire behind us is a DFAC. I fix the electronics and engines on the RQ-5A Hunter UAV. I'm on R&R in Qatar right now but I should be back tomorrow.

Another AOer in Iraq!

Keep up the good work, and stay safe.

BTW - what's a DFAC? (DFAC= Dining FACility, also known as the chow hall!.....Army)

I may be joing you soon bro. We are talking about sending in the big boys to clean this up, that means me and the rest of my brigade "MAY" be going to Iraq. I guess the figure if they send the best, they can get it finished up or something. Anyways, you keep safe till this is over, then you can become wreckless and wild .

I don't know when we're being sent in, nor do I know where. I do know they want this to be hush hush so I need to keep my brigade and such confidential. all I can say is after the recent month the heat is on, and they want us to cool it off.

and next time your on my post, look me up. I completeley missed you while you were here.

Occasional rockets, yeah I know what your going threw on my ride to and from school everyday haha. I have to pass threw the projects, its like being on the convoy in black hawk down... thats funny and sad heh. Those kids throw anything the can throw at us, and sometimes try to open the back door of the bus.

Damn. I just taped your box closed Army. Didn't throw anything in for fear of it being taken.

In the next one, though...

Thanks Devil Dog. This will mean a lot, as you know.

HOOAH

Well, we just relieved the 82nd Airborne, and the 3/504 has a Pete Mackey. Any relation? I would say something, but they left for home last week!

I am pretty srue that was him. Small world isnt it?! Stay safe man, thanks for fighting for everyone.

[Recon by Fire]

Army, is the address you posted in your first message still good? Let us know if there is something you need there or something you just cannot find that you would make the stay a bit more enjoyable

Take care!

[RtDaNiMaL]

hey ARMY,
if that adress is still good i was thinkin on sendidn u a paintball magazine or something cool like that! so i was wondering what is your favorite kind of magizine so i could go see if i can find it then send it over, saying you probably havent seen much paintball stuff besiseds AO (which is the best.) Also i hapoe you are doing good and are staying safe. it means a lot to us back here in the states. Thanks.

Dan

Thanks Army for all that your doing over there, don't let the media fool you WE (real AMERICIANS!) think you guys rock! Keep passing out the truth.

How is your sunscreen holding up? Hope that isn't in short supply.

Take care of your dogs!

A really good way to send stuff to the troops is this group

http://www.oidelivers.org/

They are 99% non-profit/volunteer.

From what I have heard Baby wipes are nice as well as any hard candy (soft stuff melts) flea and tick collars, (put around ankles) also they love x-mags w/ warpfeeds

Best wishes Army and whoop some of those forgin fighters that are trying to screw the whole thing up.

[SGTKennedy]

hey army. havin fun? if you see any tags of "Midnight Cowboys" or MCMC know we were there. i lived where the 4mmc is now, right next to the mosque, across the street from the new theater... if its done yet. i kinda miss the occasional daily mortar fire. seems like theyve let up on the net restrictions a little since i was there. i could log onto AO about once a month when the Signal guys were doing something to the system. and then id have to wait forever to get back on. relieved the 82nd? those guys were pricks when i was there, they had just gotten in, didnt know their heads from a hole in the ground and tried to run everything. we hated them.

my time in Kuwait was just after they debugged the camp so we only saw baby scorpions and very few tiny camel spiders.

GOOOOOO HAM AND CHEESE OMELETTE!!!!!!! i hated the chow there. we ate at the "new" one at the time dfac3 they made the best breakfast.

"anaconda meow, THIS IS tower one-nine, ROGER OUT.
