Welcome!!!

This is the beginning of a new adventure in my life.

It's quite simple really, 11 US Army soldiers tasked with training and mentoring what was previously a battalion and now a brigade of Iraqi Soldiers. For those of you who know how many people typically fill a brigade, you may realize how daunting this mission may seem. However, our IA (Iraqi Army) Jundees, or soldiers, are fresh. That means we will have the opportunity to mold them into a more capable fighting force.

Throughout the next 12 months I will frequently post non classified photos and news. Feel free to comment, discuss, and even ask me questions.

Keep in mind that my ability to access the internet could sometimes be limited, so your patience is appreciated.

Hi, Greg. Who translates the German blogs from the Ziegers? I have a translation program that isn't too good but I'm going to try to learn what the cousins are saying. Gma is well and playing lots of golf. Gpank

I could translate it, but it's "just" about my vacation in the states last year.
the goog translation is ok to understand what it is about.
