Thx for the update. I'll say a prayer for him and for his family.
The friend who gave me the info on the convoy being attacked is also a contractor over there, and for much the same reason. He's working on setting up radio/comm systems, though, not driving a truck.
I really hope Dan Rather doesn't seize on this as an opportunity to capitalize on his thesis that these people are contracting in Iraq because the economy is so lousy here.
