Asked to go to Iraq. Again.

+1 thank you so much dr.s!!!

 

Best luck to you and Thank you for your service. My friend is a marine and came back from Iraq in September, thankfully he came back safe and i wish that on all of you.

 

just thought I'd add a thank you and may God bless you for your service!!

 

Can you tell us when you expect to be back? We need to know where to send the girls and the beer for your arrival!!!

 

There's a new Deputy in town in-training now.........so move along mister

Had to be a tough decision. At times it seems patriotism is fading and then we are reminded by a true patriot what it's really all about. Thanks for your service in the past, present and future!!

 

Now you got us wondering about what kind of mission could be so 'different' than any other that you don't trust anyone else to do it ?

 

Maybe Iraq is just a stop on his way to his real destination........

i'm scared now, pap's in control!

 

just out of curiosity, will you have internet access over there?

 

Damn, I skip this thread for a couple days... Keep the rest of us safe. Thank you!

 

A mission only he feels he can do.......

1) go over there.
2) blow up something.
3) fly back on a C5A.
4) stop at remote airstrip outside Maranello with highly trained team of Marines.
5) load up said C5A with all kinds of neat looking red cars.
6) continue on home to complete mission.

Yep - that's a mission few could do...
And yes, it would have to be one helluva long 'remote airstrip'.

 

J.R., major respect on this end for going out...again!

 

Hey Doc,

When you get "in country"...swing by the IT Help Desk in the US Embassy Compound Baghdad and say hello!!

Dang, and I was just about to PM you on where you got your stormtrooper armor...was wanting to buy a set.

Well, take care and have a safe ride over. See ya when you get here!

Pap will do just fine, He spends alot of time here, so he's defenetly worthy, and a good mate

 

My dad was a Marine in the 60s, while some may not agree on the situation in Iraq just like previous engagements such as Viet Nam many did 2nd tours not for the cause but for their fellow buds in the Corps.

Marines first to fight and Semper Fi -good luck

 

PM me if you would like a GSM triband Cell phone to use over there- on the house......I can put a T-mobile prepaid sim in it for you....then you can call us...we here can donate some $$$ to refill it for you when you run low.......T-mobile has coverage in Iraq

God speed and stay safe......

 

You made a great point, JP.

Hope you accomplish everything you are sent to do, Doc.

 

Yet my Sprint phone gets crap service here in New Orleans...go figure!

 

Wonder how good the coverage is? IRAQNA is the major local cell net here and from what I hear SUCKS majorly. Everyone else around here uses Verizon.

 

Jonathan:
