I know you said OIF vets but I was in the sandbox of December 2000 for Operation southern watch, Kuwait Ali ah Salim air base, Marine Air Control Squadron 1.
Thank you to all of those that have served over there now...

I'm a C-5 Load and have spent time at all the hot spots more than I care to remember. Good luck to all the men / women currently in country, bringing you all home is the most rewarding part of my job! I'll fly 24 hour days non stop if it meant we could have you all home!

28 FEB 2004 - 13 FEB 2005, stuck at the "Bu", more formally known as Abu Ghraib. What a **** hole.... Looking like I may be back to the box for another round in OIF IV. "One weekend a month, two weeks a year" my ***. "Weekend warrior"? Not so much, I wish I just went active duty at this point...i'd probably spend more time in the states haha.

Its not like this is the internet and this is a public board... availble to anyone..
There are times and places for everything... posting about snoop and poop to get recognition is not one.
Anyways... Thanks for all of you who serve.. in Iraq and out. I already have OIF II under my belt... looks like I will add OIF V to my belt. See you in the sand box!!!
(God I hope RSOI goes easy.... I hate Kuwait)

Well, it was OIF.........that's why I posted it. It doesn't matter where you were/are. The title of the thread is for Iraq vets, I am one. But thanks for the lesson.
And as for the "recognition" comment.......are you fukin serious dude?
