Yep... that was his vehicle alright... He's 16th Signal Corp. attached to 4th ID...

So, why would you think he'd change his ways??

Likely as not, there's some BurKa Clad female

running and giggling through the desert with him

clutching fermented camels milk

Come home soon.

You may want to re-think that one since there's a 40MM grenade launcher on the roof that Rich insists upon using!

Rich,

Best of luck to you out there bro. Be looking for me when you fly home. I'm sure that it'll be on a C-17 and I will more than likely be the FCC on it. I'll look for you so we can talk FD's on the long azz flight home. Stay safe and keep your head down. Laterz.
