So I finally made it to my base. Still getting settled. But actually being in the middle of nowhere in nowhere Iraq is pretty nice. Its just us and no one bothers us about anything. We've been fairly busy but thats actually a good thing. We were able to get all of our gear used on some easy stuff to make sure everything works right. But out here no one makes us wear uniforms or tells us to do this or that. We workout, play games, sleep and if they get us some work we blow it up. All in all good times.
For the bad...the closest bathroom cannot handle toilet paper which means you have to place in a big garbage hanging in the stall. Needless to say I'm not cool with that and schedule my movements while I'm in another part of the base.
I will try for a lot more photos this time. I also have a video I'll try and post tomorrow. Henne asked me for some video of the beautiful Iraqi countryside and you'll get to see my glorious view every time I go out.
Doing really well. Already have a little routine working so I'll ride that for awhile and see how long into deployment it takes me. Miss everyone already but I'll be home and bored there too very soon.
