As the days go by...

Since coming to the realization that I may have to go to Iraq instead of getting out of the Army like I had hoped, I have been searching trying to find lists of things to take and pretty much what the conditions are like.

I'll have to post some links to the sights I found about peoples' experiences over there. You know you pretty much have to take enough to keep your mind busy, so you don't go crazy. You also need to be creative and resourceful to make your area a nice one. Until later....
