A Soldier's Story: Toodles
http://armyguy-asoldiersstory.blogspot.com/2009/01/toodles.html
Life on the War front. Monday, January 26, 2009. Not much has been happening here in Ghazni since my last post. We are. Trying not to count the days. Due to leave Illinois around the 20th of February and should be in. Afghanistan by the 1st of march or there about. Our weather around here has been surprisingly mild. It only got really. Cold for a few days. I don't think I have seen it get much more than. Into the teens. Most of our snow has melted. To be honest I am somewhat. Like I'm 85 and half blind.

A Soldier's Story: 60 Days
http://armyguy-asoldiersstory.blogspot.com/2009/01/60-days.html
Life on the War front. Monday, January 19, 2009. Later for now, 60 days and counting! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Our Blimp with cool cameras and stuff on it. The snow piles up on it and pushes it down, so they can't fly it. Looking down the aisle of B huts, with the new latrines on the left. We can't use the latrines because they are broken now. Me on the airfield. That's a HIP in the background. Some hummers with snow on them. These were cleaned off before bedtime. Me in front of Polish HQ.

A Soldier's Story: July 2008
http://armyguy-asoldiersstory.blogspot.com/2008_07_01_archive.html
Life on the War front. Tuesday, July 29, 2008. The last couple days have seen a reprieve in the heat. Today and yesterday only got up to 108. I know 108 LOL! Not much to report on when it comes to the war. It's pretty much as the news reports it. Things are very quiet around here. Baghdad had a large bomb go off and injure lots of civilians. Thats about all they can to do to us anymore. We find most of the IED's and the ones that go off don't usually hurt much. Thursday, July 24, 2008. Another day in Iraq.

A Soldier's Story: February 2009
http://armyguy-asoldiersstory.blogspot.com/2009_02_01_archive.html
Life on the War front. Wednesday, February 25, 2009. Saturday, February 14, 2009. 34 or 27 that is the question. 34 or 27 days left, that is the question. It appears as though we have been told our drop dead date for being out of the CENTCOM AOR is the 21st of march. We weren't orginally suppose to leave Ghazni until the 21 but now we have to leave Kuwait by the 21st. When I took leave it took me 8 days to get home 7 of those were spent in between Kuwait and Ghazni. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). We work fo...

Life on the War front. Monday, June 30, 2008. We were all very much looking forward to this. There has been an enormous amount of time and planning that has gone into this. Our little camp has swelled by about 300 people just for this event. My job for the day had me escorting a 2 star marine general around. He didn't make it because of the weather either. Saturday, June 21, 2008. Goodbye Granny………. Thursday, June 19, 2008. I know everyone thinks how horrible it is that I am over here when things like th...

Life on the War front. Wednesday, January 14, 2009. Believe it or not it's good to be back, that may sound odd but I'm back knowing that I have about 60-70 days before I'm back home again. Glad to know you made it back safe. We are all counting the days with you. Stay safe. We love you. January 14, 2009 at 1:57 PM. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

A Soldier's Story: December 2008
http://armyguy-asoldiersstory.blogspot.com/2008_12_01_archive.html
Life on the War front. Wednesday, December 17, 2008. On my way home. Saturday, December 13, 2008. So the time has come where I'm so close to going on leave but for now I'm stuck in Baghram Afghanistan waiting on another plane. I say another because the 1st one is all full and delayed on top of that. So the next plane that comes in may not even be mine because all of the other people on the delayed plane may get on that one. After almost 9 months to say that I'm a bit anxious is an understatement. We can'...

Life on the War front. Saturday, August 30, 2008. The Taliban are on the run and by the time I get there snow will be about ready to fall and the bad guys go home for the winter. Where I will be is going to be about 7k feet which is about 2k feet higher than Denver. I would love to post more pictures but each picture has been taking almost 20 min to post. My internet connection upload is very slow. Monday, August 25, 2008. I may have used this before but Damn it's hot! This week should be better than mos...
