Actually,it is good to hear your first adventure outside the wire was uneventful, except watching things crash to the ground. Afghanistan doesn’t seem it would be very pretty but I do read that sometimes the sky would turn blood red due to sand storms??

I know that 99% of war is boring, but at times that other 1% can kick your ass. you are right about the living conditions in our modern Army, versus what we had in Vietnam, but all in all it's the same war, just in a different place. I was a Security Police, which is the Air Force equivilent to the Army MP. Lots of convoy escorts, which I hated. But the rest of my 21 years was great. stay safe and watch your 6.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8255889363485225211.post-73855097899931011452008-11-14T15:05:00.000-06:002008-11-14T15:05:00.000-06:00mud puppy, repeat after me.... boring is good in a...mud puppy, repeat after me.... boring is good in a warzone, boring is good in a warzone.
