Finally got settled in over in SW Asia. Things are going well. I get to drive 100 mph through the desert and blow things up.

Get this, the Dept of Army and corp of engineers dresses me up to look like a soldier sends me to the sand box but says civilians can't cary firearms! What a F#^$ing joke. The good news, I've already solved the problem....at my own expense of course. AK's and ammo are really cheap over here. Too bad there's no way to get this stuff home.

I'll you posted on the all the fun stuff.

Good luck with your time over there.

They may be s***hole countries, but I guess being able to get your hands on full auto guns is a plus.

the smell isn't bad out here in the oil fields. It's only around the cities and the Kuwait airport.

I'm living in Iraq near the Basrah Airport. Travel all over the Rumalah Oil fields. Been to Doha only once to pick up flack vest. I'll prob get back there next week to get more shots and shop at PX.
