April 8th & 9th, 2004 a bloody day for all in Iraq.

The days preceding the 8th & 9th were not easy days. Things were heating up all over Iraq. On April 7th, I took a convoy through Baghdad. We had problems on Sword, blockage, IED's planted on the frontage road, ect... Then on April 8th & 9th the shit hit the fan.

I made this post on April 9th.

I know everyone has been watching the news, and I am sure there are some concerns. I still have not seen the news. I have been real busy to not be busy and have not had the chance to watch it. I hear what is going on up north and on my way down a few days ago, experienced a bit of it. I want to be truthful with everyone, but I don't want to cause undue fear. Yes it is getting hotter in Iraq. And if you will remember, I believe I told everyone that it was going to get that way several months ago. I wont lie to ya'll, our convoys are getting hit more often now. People are getting hurt, and some even killed. A few days ago, I heard a rumor that a convoy was hit and hit hard. I had several friends up there and was as worried about them as I am sure ya'll are about me. I found out it was a Turkish convoy and they had done something that they should not have done. It doesn't lessen the loss for their families, but understand, I will not leave a camp without escort. Yesterday, 3 convoys were hit. One was a KBR flatbed convoy from Arifjan. (read the rest here)

Christine, I screwed up. Look at the date on the pics. 2004.

This story is no good. If you can delete it, please do. If not, no problem, consider it a monument to a careless mistake.

I disagree: this story has been in effect for six years now, and shows no sign of ever stopping, no matter what aka says.

I just hate that I was careless, and that made the OP an outdated story.

It would be interesting to see what's happening now though, now that obamessiah still has to sneak into the country after we liberated the ungrateful ay-rabs. /snicker/.

Your wanton carelessness is unforgivable.

As punishment, I think Chrissy should be forced to give me a severe spanking.

Maybe over several days or weeks.

You know, that is based on historical fact.

Not that I am saying Christine is some kind of dominatrix, but royalty used to have a designated whipping boy.

That would have come in handy when I was a kid. Too bad my blood is red and not blue.

Guessing that most all we here took our own licks, as needed...it didn't take all that many to learn that doing 'right' was gonna get me a lot further than was being a screw-up.
