Ok one more for the Night

Dude before I forget. Like a week ago we went to Speicher to get a new piece of equipment... Gary goes to get his hearing checked... Well the damn hearing machine is still broken so he tells them about this pain he has behind his ear. So the nurse or Dr. or what ever touchs behind his ear and says "Ouch". Well long story short they pulled a good size chunk of shrapnel out from behind his ear that was there from the first time the guys got blown up. The shrapnel had been in there for over 2 months. The pic here is of the post operation. He had no idea that there was a piece of metal in his head.... A quick note though even with it removed Gary still can't hear shit.... And he no longer pics up XM radio.


Jake testing out the "New Equipment"

To The PSD Secret Admirer

I got a little comment from some "Secret Admirer" who wouldn't disclose there name and she (I'm assuming its a girl, though I guess it could be a dude you never know these days) he/she said that they wanted to see "more" of the Soldiers but this is a family blog and I can't be posting twigs and berries all over the blog... So we all posed for Sexy pics except for me... Though it did give me an idea I think I might make a little PSD calender........ So for your entertainment I present the men from the PSD....
Here we have Jimmy he is an older gentleman but he has no problem standing at attention if you know what I mean.......










Here we have Gary promoting the Red Bull...

Here is Cowboy Drake... I know how all women want a cowboy......

Here is Jacob our recent divorcee... He is in to long walks on the beach and interested in traveling abroad... In the below posts you've seen Eggs he is a single strapping young buck and well mannered fellow...... I would have posted pics of Spantonio Banderas but he gets all pissy when you try to take his pictures, but I think there is one on here of him in front of the TATA truck..... Enjoy....

Ode to Eggs

Here is a little story about our friend eggs "Eggleston". Eggs is a religious lil guy, well mannered (well when he isn't playing a sports game on X-Box but what does he expect when he choses teams out of the Capitol area). He isn't a Combat Arms guy but you wouldn't be able to tell that about him... Shit half the time I forget that he is a fridge mech... Hard working and reliable come to mind when talking about Eggs.... He was recently "benched" from the team and is currently riding the rest of the deployment out from behind a desk.. Not cuz we want him there trust me we want him out on the road with us... See Eggs wasn't supposed to come to Iraq he has a condition with his eye's where he gets something like Cold Sores on his eyes, and the sun, wind, dust, and heat aggravate the condition... So now Eggs has scarring on his cornea that will affect his vision later on in life. So the powers that be said no more... So he has to sit by the phone... I know he doesn't want to and I know we don't want him to.... He is the hardest refrigeration mechanic that I know... Eggleston is a damned good Soldier, got screwed into coming here by HHC (and a myriad of other people but I don't know the whole story so take it as face value that I might just be talking out of my ass) but he did his mission without bitching and to the best of his ability, when we got nailed in Samarra and the guys in his truck were out of the fight Eggs comes over the Radio and starts giving his LACE and a little sit rep and keeping us informed with whats going on. The picture of the crew below you see Eggs on the left with a big grin on his face.. Thats just an attestment to my mans character. Pretty much I just want Eggs to know and everyone else for that matter that we know you got screwed man and we would roll through the gates of hell with you any damn day of the week......

Today we went out and came across a burning fuel tanker in the middle of the road all on fire and shit in the middle of no where... It was great.. Camp Speicher has a Taco Bell now..

Mo Pics from RnR

Man o Man this is my big girl. Believe it or not she picked out the bicycle. Well she picked out something different but then Toys R Imported along with our non english speaking employees pissed me off and lied to me for 3 days so I went to a respectable sporting store and got this one and wouldn't you know she loved it... She picked out the Camelflauge helmet. She is a tomboy I guess you could say. I taught her how to ride the bicycle before I left.. She just has to work on turning!

Me and my fresh pimp.. We have the same double chinner!
Me and my baby girl snoozin.. Or at least I was
Me and my man at the beach its his first trip... He loved it... Ya I know I need some sun and trust me I got it....
Me and the kiddiessss.... Not a very flattering picture of myself. Ya I'm still trying to figure out the whole format for this stuff and you know I'm lost so enjoy.... Roodawg out!

R & R

This is a pic of me and my lil Homie!---- Well folks I came and went. I was on R n R for a while (well 2 weeks) it was pretty nice. I got to spend time with my family. It was really nice to see them my boy got so big and my daughters even more beautiful than I remembered. We hung out and went to some theme parks and had a pretty good time. It was pretty weird being home.
I flew from Iraq to Kuwait then to Germany then to Atlanta. In Atlanta you walk up the stairs to the main terminal to catch your connecting flight to where ever your going. As I was walking up the steps the main terminal came into view and it was like a mall. It was so weird just people walking around like...... well like normal.. It was just a strange feeling. Meanwhile my brothers in arms and myself are wondering through the airport looking for our connecting gates to take us all the way home. We are in our desert camelflage uniforms mind you. Some people would stare and quickly look away other people just didn't pay any attention to us. Some folks walked up and shook my hand and said thank you. I walked to my gate and sat down. Nobody talked to me. Which is fine, but just a little weird I guess. All I could think about is how life goes on. Then a guy I recognized from the flight over sat down next to me. We bullshitted until it was time to bored the plane, a United flight no less. I sat towards the front and he sat towards the back. So I had no company for the last leg of the trip. I did sit and watch them give up 2 1st Class seats to 2 civilian women. That was nice. Can't complain to much cuz I did sit 1st class on the way back... The gas prices tripped me out a bit... Guess they can pin as high as they want and as the gas guzzling Americans we are we will pay that shit.... It will get upto like 5 then down to 3 and we will call it cheap... But anywho man I had a great time at home. Then as quick as it began it was over and it was time to bored the damned plane back... I was stuck in Kuwait for a couple of days which led to some ripe uniforms. I got back here and I start reading articles in the paper on how the politicians have outlawed the pledge of allegiance and how kids can't celebrate Christmas and how its just happy holidays. wow that shit really pisses me off. I swore to protect this country from all enemies foreign and domestic and I'm out here fighting a war on terror but back home its the American people who are slowly but surely stripping other Americans of civil liberties.. WTF over? Wow.... Crazy just crazy...
K enough of that. Well enough of that if there is anything you would like me to post or pics you want to see just e-mail me or comment and let me know....... Aight....
Its me Pimp Snooky.. It was so weird not wearing damned DCU's
Its my baby in her butterfly sunglasses... Man those things were crackin me up!

Man this girl got big and she is so smart its so crazy!!!!
Youll have to turn your head sideways on this one cuz I forgot to rotate it.. My bad but my man is still pimp in his Spongebob digs....
