It was a very nerve wracking trip. My boss was real good at putting us into sketchy positions and then becoming unavailable when you needed him the most. I did learn that candy bars, those small "sampler" bottles of liquor you find in hotel room bars, and cheap Casio watches are a good way to "bribe" hostile Insurgents with impromptu checkpoints to let you pass unharmed. I haven't been back since.

Dude... f*** that. You must have big, cast iron testes to have taken that gig.
