The last straw for Heldt, who works in the Army's finance unit, came earlier this month when the Army extended his year-long 'boots on ground' tour of duty another 90 days, through the June 30 transfer of power deadline in Iraq."
I wish an asteroid would hit this guy. Apocalypse would be worth it. What a piece of crap. He is a FINANCE CLERK. He does nothing but sit on his butt all day long and screw up people's pay. He is at Baghdad International Airport. That is the cushiest assignment in Iraq. He is getting paid tax-free, getting a hostile fire bonus, incurring far fewer expenses than he would at home so he is saving a ton of money, he is eating 3 hot meals per day, he is a short walk from a decent PX, and he has MWR facilities. If any FReepers are anywhere near this guy, please beat him on my behalf.
There was a plan but I never heard back from my operator ;^)
