Down Time
We have made lots of friends around here and have had time to just relax with them.
Sometimes in our down time, we play a good game of "Guess Who"
We even have the luxuries of Root Beer Floats which will be yummy as it starts to heat up around here.
So while missions are always going on, we get some down time as well.

Weapons Qual
In order to stay the best fighting force in the world, we need to keep up with our training. Even in Iraq, we have to go to the weapons range.

Chow Time
When our stomachs start to grumble we head over to the Dining Facility. Some people call it a Mess Hall or Chow Hall.
It's not mom's home cooking but it will do.
If we can't make it out to the dining facility because too much is going on with the mission, our friends will take care of us by bring us our food. It's all about watching out for one another over here.

Iraqi School Kids
What a treat we got today when we got to go with SFC Albrecht and his team to the local school here. The kids we saw today are different the kids we normally visit. The Bedouin children don't attend school. It was interesting to see the differences.
This was also a very special visit because we were doing it in honor of SFC A's friend who died during his last deployment. Mrs. Herlem, (a very good friend of SFC A and his family) sent school items in honor of SGT Jose Gomez as part of the Fallen Stars Memorial. Her husband Bryant was killed the same day that Jose was, so we were able to honor both of them and two children who died that day as well. It's important for us to remember those who have paid the price to bring hope not only to America but the children in Iraq too.
