I AM JOE THE CITIZEN!!!

Republican in Name Only because one has to be registered to vote in the primaries. Too much of a conservative libertarian to be a Republican and never, ever a koolaid drinker.

Expat contractor in Iraq (2003-2005).

Sorry ladies, I'm taken!

Spent two years supporting Operation Iraqi Freedom and Operation Enduring Freedom in theater. Qatar, Kuwait, and Iraq.

Anaconda, BIAP, Al Asad, Fallujah, Haditha, Ramadi, Al Qaim, Taqqadum, Habanayah, and several others.

Buried Jets? Just another rumor…?

Rockets and mortars and bombs...Oh my!

My favorite In Theater quote:

"All call signs, do not panic, that is all out-going"

...yeah, right, sure it is...

View of Haditha Dam. Really quite a structure; seven levels, two below water level, and I was one of the few Americans to ever explore the Iraqi side.

The glass worked! Sniper Foiled, South African Merc lives to fight another day!

Doing my “Where’s Waldo?” Impersonation.

Been to Baghdad, BIAP, Palace Complex, Victory, Green Zone, Balad, Tikrit, Taji, Fallujah, Ramadi, Al Qaim...Tampa, Mobile, Uranium, Sword....soft SUV's, 5 ton, 60's, 47's, 53's, 130's...

Had a front row seat for the Battle of Fallujah...The Sunni Triangle? Yeah, I’ve made the drive more than once.

Sunsets and choppers near the Syrian border.

Daisy chain IED that didn’t get us.
