Thanks to all for the well-wishes. I will probably not get off the FOB very often being a staff geek so it won't be quite as dangerous as it other-wise could be. Last time I was filling an infantry platoon commanders billet, now I am the assistant IT officer. The main threat you have on a FOB is indirect fire (mortars and rockets) but that threat has been minimized in the last few years in Al Anbar. I keep you all informed as to what is going on, of course. Talk to you later.
