I'll watch your car so I can keep the miles down on my car...

I've only passed through Bagram, and Qatar, but everywhere in Iraq sucks that is for sure. Qatar is a nice place to take a break from the 'raq though, 3 beers a day, swimming pool and no mortars can't beat that if you are gonna be there in the middle east.
