UPDATE

Dear family and friends--

It's been a really busy month for me. I've travelled to Qatar, Baghdad, and Balad, been given a laundry list of new duties, shot AK-47s, and done some some things that I'll tell my grandkids. I've been working from 6 in the morning until midnight for about three weeks straight.

Luckily, I've been able to keep my journal up, but I haven't been close enough to my computer in my room to type it out. I've got one more trip to Ramadi to do in the next few days. As time permits, I'll start posting the pictures and journal entries from the last month.

Well I hope all is well back in the world. Miss everyone... drop me a line now and then.

Ryan
