Chad and Chris

Well leave was great. I saw Chris at TQ so I know he is home by now. The flight was long. The flight into Iraq was eventful as the plane took evasive action and set off flares. I had no idea what kind of sounds and visuals flares made so when I heard "BANG, BANG, BANG....BANG, BANG, and saw orange flaming richochets out the windows I thought we were taking fire. The on the ride to the base I was in the lead vehicle and nearly ran over a pressure switch IED. Four feet from setting it off. WELCOME BACK TO IRAQ! This place really blows; er, sucks. Gus has pissed some people off (imagine that), Kurt is all better and back to work, Mat's baby weighs 10 pounds and his wife is fine too, Cavender is working way too much, Chambers has the shits or something and according to his peers is quite crazy (I know better), Patapumba has lost weight (Sammy found it though), Teddy has a giant bleeding zit in his eye, The boss gets less mail now, Dex is overworked, Ramon is headed home for Christmas, Luis I never see, Sales I see even less, Ron is sleeping I think, Ryan is a vampire complete with pale skin, Q is Q ( I think he got a haircut to please me on my return, although I know he hates to cut it. Good kid.) Kelly is a grumpy bastard but so am I, he's home now, and finally, James D. is.

Well thats it for now. Couldn't really keep this up while at home. Will collect recent pics and get them up soon. KT Out.
