Iraqi Elections

Absolutely nothing happened.  Complete quiet.  Not one medevac related to violence or even combat.  Hopefully that’s a sign of things to come here.  I have to say though, that Iraqis take their elections much more seriously than do people in the US.  Very little apathy in the voting public.  I mean would you turn out to vote if you were unsure whether or not you would be killed for doing so?  Especially if you are a woman?  The security forces (Army, Police, etc) got to vote a day early just to make sure there would be enough people to ensure the safety of the public.

Ok.  That’s it for now.  Just a quick update from someone actually here and not in some news office.
