Baghdad
Well, I made it to Baghdad finally. C-17 took off on only the 3rd time we thought we would be leaving during the last few days and there were 10 of us accompanying some vehicles. The housing here is much better. 2 of us per room and 3 rooms per air-conditioned trailer. When I get my E-5 (maybe next month) I will get a bigger room. The temperature is 5-10 less than Kuwait and there are trees and grass here! Guess one can even be made to see the bright side of this place.
The base is huge - actually the airport and a few bases are all interconnected into one large complex, and security seems good. Im not too worried about anything as long as I am on post. No word yet on if/when I will be leaving the wire for missions.
