Hello again everyone.
How are all of you? Well I hope. I'm still in Iraq. We got extended after going to Najaf and Al Kut to fight down there. We wer emoved to some tiny little FOB called st. michaels. It is hell there. Absolute hell. It is abouit the size of a large foot ball pr baseball staduim. We get hit there every other day- mand hard. In the last 2 months I can't count the number of times. THe worse of all the attacks so far were from a volley of mortars that injured 24 in aobut 10 seconds time. We've a;lso had a few more deaths. We have to wea
r our
gear all the time now wherever we go no matter to the porapotty or to the showers or to go smoke. We get hit that much. The good news is that I am still alive! Hopefully we will be gonig home in the next month. So I am hanging in there. So I thihnk about you guys alot. hope you post back!

Megabot 06-11-2004 12:39 PM

Dizzy, please keep your head down. We want you home safe. Hell, if I had a magic wand I'd wish you all home safe, each resting beneath a palm tree on a nice sandy stretch of beach with a Pina-colada in one hand and a frozem Margarita in the other. Paid for, no tab or nothing.

Until that day, Please Be Careful.

Bungleau 06-11-2004 01:11 PM

Stay safe, Dizzy. And thanks for the job you're doing.

Jorath Calar 06-11-2004 01:57 PM

I was thinking about you the other day, hhoping you'd post soon, very good to hear from you.

Stay safe and be carefull.

Black Baron 06-11-2004 02:01 PM

Stay safe, get back home in one piece and good luck to you and to your comrades in arms. I really appreciate what you do there, you are on the frontier in that war and without people like you we will loose.

And, hey, who knows? Maybe after 3 years we will share our army experience... [img]smile.gif[/img]

SomeGuy 06-11-2004 02:14 PM

Hey mate, it's awesome to see that you're still here and alright. Stay safe and come home soon!

Mack_Attack 06-11-2004 02:26 PM

Be safe and thanks for all the hard work. Takes a certain person to do that. I think I would have troubles being over there. :D

Timber Loftis 06-11-2004 02:51 PM

Good to hear from you Dizzy. Wishing you continued luck and safety.

Terrorists are such ****ers. They kill random people their actions don't even benifit their own cause.
Found any weapons of mass destruction? [img]smile.gif[/img]
Out of curiosity, are you military or civvy?

Ladyzekke 06-11-2004 03:21 PM

Good to hear from you Dizzy. I hope they let you out of there soon, I can't imagine how horrible it must be for all of you guys over there. Take care, stay safe, and know we are all thinking about you. [img]smile.gif[/img]

uss 06-11-2004 03:25 PM

Wow, hope you make it!

Attalus 06-11-2004 03:30 PM

Stay safe, Dizzy and thanks a lot.

Larry_OHF 06-11-2004 04:03 PM

<font color=skyblue>Thanks for checking in with us! You are one of us IW'ers, and we worry for you!

Whoop those bad boyz!</font>

Lord of Alcohol 06-11-2004 07:00 PM

Hey Dizzy, glad to hear from you man! It sounds tough over there,stay safe friend.When you get home we'll throw you a party! Whats your address over there? APO I'm sure but need details, maybe a few people could send an Ironworks care package for you and your buddies.

mad=dog 06-11-2004 07:20 PM

Regardless of my opinion on the war of Iraq let my say that I hope you stay safe until this depressing conflict is somehow resolved.
I reckon it will be soon. I see no reason for the Iraqi freedom fighters to persist if the UN intervenes and an Iraqi government is in place.
Of course there will always be troublemakers and nutcases so take care.

True_Moose 06-11-2004 08:56 PM

Keep safe, Dizzy. Good to hear you're still in one piece. [img]graemlins/thumbsup.gif[/img]

SecretMaster 06-11-2004 09:51 PM

Stay safe Dizzy, real safe.

Now this is why I say the spell Similarcrum should exist, so Dizzy could have his image fight while he is safe and sound here.

Bahamut 06-11-2004 11:43 PM

Glad to hear from you again after such a long time.

Glad you're safe... hope it doesn't change. You take good care and stay BRAVE. ;)

Dragonshadow 06-12-2004 10:04 AM

Good to knwo you're okay Dizzy mate. [img]smile.gif[/img] Make sure it stays atht way.

Cloudbringer 06-12-2004 12:32 PM

Dizzy! It's good to see you post and know you're ok. Do take care and stay safe as best you can!

Dirty Meg, our Dizzy's in the military and doesn't get many chances to post to us, so we're all relieved to hear from him now and then when he can.

Ronn_Bman 06-12-2004 01:37 PM

I just got an email and some pics from another friend of mine who's also serving in Iraq. It is always good to hear that you guys are safe.

Thanks for everything! [img]graemlins/thumbsup.gif[/img]

TyranyuZ 06-12-2004 01:53 PM

They got internett in iraq ? O_o

Jorath Calar 06-12-2004 03:00 PM

Yes apparantly they do, contrary to popular belief, Iraq is not a barren wasteland full of cavemen and prehistoric monsters ... [img]smile.gif[/img]
