If anyone is at Camp Victory and sees a Drew Carey looking MP walking around the PX area looking at badges, kick him in his pecker! I doubt that he is still overseas but the guy never left the base. He walked around harrassing people. I bet he is one of the guys who talks about all the bad stuff that he has seen out in the Red Zone but only knows from hearing his comrads.

Stay safe and keep your eyes open.

If anyone calls you a dudecky, it means ******.

Headed to MNF-I in the IZ. Not sure what camp it is yet, but I know it's pretty close to the crossed swords.

Sounds right, but I'm not sure. I can point it out on a map though. It's just south of the center of the road between the two pairs of crossed swords.

Prosperity is a freaking cake walk. I wish we stayed there. The Blackjack Bistro Chow Hall was the ****! Best CH in the AO I do believe. Rarely got to eat there though...we were outside the wire too much.
