I can agree. We're getting a few contract types, when we show up in theater. Technical types who probably won't leave the wire.

They'll just be dodging mortars, like us.

I don't go outside the wire unless I'm on a Chinook or a Black Hawk - and that's just to transit between bases.

Some contracting companies have offices in the Red Zone, but I won't work there. Not at this point, anyway. I hope this guy will survive the kidnapping.

Like you said, we just dodge the mortars and rockets they launch onto our camps. ;-)
