Note from Kuwait

Dear Friends,

The flight was 15+ hours with deplaning in Bangor, Maine (where we were met by 20+ veterans, great Americans) and Leipzig, Germany (with a nice break for 1.5 hrs). Kuwait is a giant sandbox with zero plants and only two different species of birds that I've seen. I don't have my Birds of the Middle East book. It's in a footlocker somewhere in Iraq. Should be great fun later.


We have giant, insulated tents with wooden floors, realy good food at the Dining Facility, and a PX. Internet seems to work okay. We leave Thursday for Iraq (Wed night your time). I should be out of touch for quite awhile.

Chris
