From Bloomberg News:
"Berg went to Iraq ``because he believed in the cause and he wanted to help the Iraqi people rebuild their infrastructure,'' said Walter Billings, president of Total Engine Service and Supply Co., for whom Berg worked as a contractor.
Billings said Berg had performed painting, repairs and troubleshooting for problems, among other engineering and maintenance tasks on radio towers as high as 900 feet tall outside Baltimore and Washington, for the company's Comm- Struction and Services division, based in Bel Air, Maryland."
Apparently after this guy from Total Engine Service posted the message to the board he hired Berg as a contractor. Hmmmm. Perhaps his credentials as a tower guy are legitimate. But the question remains as to why he went to Iraq when work here in the US is good?
bump for later reading.
