RichLundeen,
Thank you for your service in Iraq...all of you Marines have done a job beyond the call.
Also thanks for sharing your photos.

I'm a contractor for the Marine Corps now. That's why I have a crappy AK 47. I do have nice sidearms to choose from though!

It's really been a privilege for me the last couple of years. I may return, but if my CO has anything to say about (wonderful wife, Gina), I'll be staying home.

Either way, it's been great!

Welcome back, Rich! Your CO might just confine you to quarters for a time.

Ha ha! That's for sure; both girls (Gina and daughter Ella) seem to have no interest in me leaving again. And I sure could see being back in the 'real world' again! Now if only I can find some silly enough to provide gainful employment, hmmmmmmmmm.............

I will admit that I have grown fond of being a Jarhead again, albeit a civvy contractor. Everything I've looked at work-wise back here seems, well, boring.

Welcome back! If memory serves me correct you had posted a picture of yourself awhile back by the airport. I think that you were wearing blue coveralls(?). Glad to hear that you are okay.

Thanks all!

Yeah, that was the pic from last year, where they had just tore down 'Sad-man's' crap off the terminal. With a Recon team.

I'll post some more current 'Baghdad International Airport' pic; I was there again a few months ago.
