On the Ground in Basrah
I arrived at FOB Basrah at 2am this morning! Captain Murray has shown me around, and I've met some of the key players. As Liaison Officer, it'll be my job to coordinate support from our 287th headquarters, and report back what they need here.
The British have publicly said they're leaving this Spring, so big changes are afoot.
Enroute here, we stopped over at Camp Bucca, which is where Charles was from July 2005-May2006. It was as nice as Tullil, plus they had a decent stage for USO events. We didn't stay long, though, and pushed on in to Basrah. I'll have to post photos and more details another evening, though. You can imagine we're all pretty tired!
Happy New Year, and best wishes for a speedy reunion in 2009.
