We've been getting attacked. . .
I haven't been on the last couple weeks because we keep getting rocket and mortor attacks. For some reason, while the shi* is happening I'm really calm. But when nothing is happening, in my tent I'm freakin paranoid. I don't know. Fortunately, nobody is hurt. Looks like they've been aiming at the dining facility, post office, and flight line. Well, guys. . .just keeping yall updated. . .damn this sand flies and fleas suck as*. Talk to yall later! Peace

Hey everybodee. . .
Just keeping in touch. . . we've been getting attacked the last 2 weeks. More mortar and rocket attacks. Something looks fishy.
Right around our base we have Italian, Australian, and US Army Battle Ground. Which surround our base. The italians had their sensors off before the attack. For some unknown reason. Therefore, the bad guys were close enough on the italian side to shoot some rockets and mortars off on are base.
Just yesterday, we got into a fire fight. . .I got to retreive 2 AK47, and a 9MM Submachine Gun. . .All is well. . I have pictures for you soon!
Talk to yall later. . . PEACE!
