Paul, I have a nephew who's also flown in and out of Afghanistan several times, and the stories and pics he had to share....well, whatever your nephew's telling you is probably true. I just can't see why anyone would want to be there at all if they had the choice. Of course, I stress "if".

Grimace, thanks for the update. If you happen to be able to contact Bigehauser again anytime soon, let him know we're keeping him in our thoughts and to watch his ass out there.
