Leon,
Long time no see, bro. How are things? The situation here is simple enough, although I'm working both as an illustrator and a combat camera. No local watch for me this rotation—it would seem they've earned the right to meander about on their own. I've taken up pipe smoking as a relaxing past time, though it's been a while since my last smoking. I also enjoy the occasional cigar.
I'd be lying if I said my time here was well spent. The vast majority of my time is spent providing graphics for any videos we happen to be putting together...oh, and watching movies, I do a lot of movie watching. You should watch Transformers, if you haven't already.
I may get sent to the more southern portion of this forsaken country where things are a little less uneventful, but until then, I'm here. If I could afford a computer, I could make better use of my time doing what I joined the Army to do—taking college courses.
I'm sure there will be more to come as my deployment unfolds. Until then, I'm off to create a flyer for the local soccer tournament.
Peace.

Meanwhile in Washington this week, Defense Secretary Robert Gates warned Congress that without an urgent infusion of another $196 billion, U.S. military bases in Iraq and Afghanistan could face partial closures and civilian job losses.

HAHAH. I doubt i can do a better job at convincing people about the situation in Afghanistan.
I have a friend working with KBR right now stationed in Afghanistan, he seems to have the same view as Dr. Feelgoode. A lot of movies!
In fact he has a lot to say about his job too, and the ways in which the army is blowing money, and HE can comment since he is a cost estimator over there making around 100K of tax free income.
Ofcourse he doesnt complain, who would in his case? 100 grand in tax free income right after undergrad.
Keep it up Feelgood!
