Greetings, FReepers, Troops,
and All the Ships at Sea!

Reporting LIVE! from the LSA in overcast and breezy Kuwait, it’s the continuing saga of Sarge's Most Excellent Adventure!

What an interesting time Sarge and his fellow travelers have had these past few days! We got back to theater late on Tuesday night, got bed and breakfast after nineteen hours in the air and a stop in Frankfurt am Main for two hours. I hit the Canteen for a few hours last night, just as a hailstorm bludgeoned the base with bullet-sized hail and churned everything into that mud y’all have read about.

Later that day, we all dragged our bags up to the buses and rode to the tarmac, and waited in the tents for the flight from Iraq to take us into the war zone once again. So, imagine our surprise to find out the plane was delayed – after catching fire – in the air – and made a slow trip here….

Needless to say, we’re all still in Kuwait, for at least another day (whew, I said that with a straight face)…

Sarge will be in and out as access permits, so Y’all Have Fun!

OLD SARGE

(((SARGE!!!)))

My goodness, it is sooooo good to hear from you..and to see that shadow. I am thankful you guys weren't on that plane when it caught fire. I guess you'll just have to "suffer" another whole day in Kuwait! Stay safe, hero!

Welcome back to the weird side of the world!

I wonder if you'll make it back into Iraq today.

'Tis mighty dust-stormy in Baghdad today. Visibility's not great.

Stay safe!
