Ramp Ceremonies

When I came out to Afghanistan I was told I needed very little training. I was sent out here with a flak vest, a 9mm, and a false sense of security. I know I have not been involved in any of the fighting but I have recieved a fraction of a taste of it while out here. My job consists of me sitting in an office all day. I am almost never allowed

Ah- so you read about the Sheehan lady. Yes, pisses me off too, that plus, the woman sounds so lost. She sounds very ignaornat in a baby kinda of way. Yes we are sad what happened to her son and the many others but this was her son's choice to do not hers. Talk about mis-paced anger. I am convinced some liberal group got a hold of her and brainwashed her. I am happy tho, this time, pro-war supporters & military Moms of fallen soldiers have started their protest against hers.

Is there a support-system set up there so you can vent-talk thru these feelings & experiences??

Take care!!!

Hey Girl, sorry our call got fubared. I hope you'll try to call again sometime this week if you're able and I'm glad your still ok over there. Been reading more and more about violence in Afghanistan over the last few weeks in the news so stay safe. Your car is doing fine and I think it misses you. The other day it refused to start for me. I had to lock and unlock the door 12 million times before it finally started up. I think it was a cry for help from a lonely automobile that was used to daily attention.
