Hello
A quick update...not much to report here, life is pretty regimented here, up, eat breakfast, work, eat lunch, work out eat dinner go back to work....we work 12 hour shifts 6 days per week...that has taken some getting used to...no comp time here like back home. I have to attend a nightly briefing called shift change...its a down and dirty classified brief about what went on in Iraq in the last 24 hours...its for situational awareness, pretty interesting stuff. I am a go between between the army contractors (KBR aka Halliburton) and getting projects approved through the Army for FOB QWEST near Baghdad. Its busy and pretty interesting...I get a sampling of what kind of money is being spent over here...you wouldnt believe it so Ill spare you the depressing figures. This is a noble cause and soon the Iraqi people are going to have to drive the train themselves, there are many capable people here to make that happen. Gott run they called me to the phone!
