Greetings from Iraq...

Hey everyone, how is it going? Sorry I haven't sent any emails sooner, but you know how things go. Everything is going well over here, not too much to complain about, but like I have said before, we still do because we can. We are performing Military Police operations here, which is a fairly vague job description, you could say we do it all. We patrol our areas, escort convoys all over, even to Baghdad, we help stranded Iraqis fix their vehicles, we give candy and toys to kids, and provide security anywhere they might need us. Luckily, our main area is pretty quiet, but there is always something to look at, guard, or secure. I'm am actually having quit a bit of fun over here, at least until the heat starts. The weather has been decently pleasant since we arrived, the only thing that sucks is that it has been raining alot, and desert mud is no joke. The only thing that I can really complain about is that I miss my family and friends.
Billie Jo is doing pretty good. She has moved back in with her parents to help ease the burden of pregnancy a little bit. We are able to stay in touch a few times a week, when my free time allows. I'm sure you all know, but the baby is due July 2, and I should be able to come home right around then for my leave.
If any one has any new CDs that they may want to copy for me and send over, that would be much appreciated, as music gets rather scarce.
Well, I 'm off to save the world, one day at a time, I wish everyone the best, and know that I will be safe and smart.
