Greetings From The Front

By Slab

To all of our readers, I just wanted to report that I am safe and sound in Al Anbar province. I am currently living and working in a small outpost north of Saqlawiyah. So far it's been relatively quiet, as the Iraqi Civilian Watch is helping to keep the insurgent activity down. Of course, some of them were insurgents, but counterinsurgency often makes strange bedfellows. More updates to follow.

Stay safe, Slab, and best of luck with your mission. People are pulling for you on the other side of the Atlantic.

Stay safe and good luck out there!

Slab:

I'll send you a SIPR check as soon as I can.

Until then... head down, eyes open, powder dry, bayonet sharp!

One grunt's opinion of his commander in Anbar:

“I’d do anything for that man,” said a third, “and I don’t like officers.

Do you think that one will make it into the leadership manuals?

Stay safe my friend.
