Another 4th in Iraq.
Back when I was here in 2007, I didn’t even care to blog about the 4th. We were so busy doing ground patrols, raids, and watching officers eat with Iraqis while we baked in the sun that I didn’t get the chance to enjoy it, let alone write about it. In fact, I was probably asleep if I wasn’t on patrol. It was hot, dirty, and nothing worth celebrating.
