left iraq for the last time

hey guys flew my last mission last night!! Left iraq and repositioned to the port in kuwait for cleaning my machine and putting on the boat!! What a feeling!! Had a blast coming down.. Once we got far enough south.. The whole southern portion near the border is a junkyard littled w/ hundreds of deadn tanks from the first round... The sun was coming up over the desert and we had the tunes jacked in...flying low and fast... Disposed of thousands of 'excess' rounds for the old m60 s and also got rid of all our flares , grenades... One of those good days you have here and there in the service.. Sould be on a plane in a few weeks.. Finnally going to meet my bike.. Then i get to start buggin you guys for maps and tech advice..

My other ride is big and green too!!

The people from DR came all, they where with plans for construction but that did not happen. The new spain president convinced the Dr president to take the forces home, 2 died.
I hope the problem is resolved because that part of the world deserves peace.
