And you were working for them before the war? That must've been a shocking development. Were you given a choice or was it a must?
No, it's always been my choice. I can leave anytime I want. I was working in the private sector doing procurement and logistics on large international projects and traveling around the world some on business trips. Just living a normal, happy life in Houston.
When the war reconstruction came up, I didn't pay much attention at first. Then I was contacted in late '03 and asked if I wanted to come over here and here I am. ;-)
