But there are date palms everywhere in the Green Zone, sadiqi. With birds in them. Although the event of which I spoke happend at FOB Shield.
I really am in the Green Zone this time around. After years of being accused by some of being an "REMF hding in the Green Zone," when in fact, I was at various FOBs and tiny outposts, this is like a self-fulfilling prophecy. LOL Where are you these days?
I left D17 (Al Iskandariya) last March and I'm back on the farm in the beautiful Texas Hill Country.
Good luck in the GZ. Keep your head down. That area is a mortar magnet.
