new dates

well i am back in the hell hole for a bit longer now. I flew around Iraq in a blackhawk before i got here though, went all the way to baghdad (flying right past here several hours before that)
because i had late leave i get screwed... i am one of the 12 "luck" people that have to take the company's tanks back (14 of them) to kuwait, i know we are gonna do a rediculous amount of work on them...
we leave to go down the Christmas day the 25th, and won't leave for the state till the 18th of January, whilst everyone else flys home the 27th of December. I just love having to go 10 months straight here and then because i had such late leave getting to go on a detail that makes me stay damn near an extra month.
nearly 13 months in Iraq for me before i am done here!
