Be safe. Make sure to bring Fruit cake with you, scorpions and camel spiders hate it.

Do you know specifically where you're going? Went to Balad myself in '07 after getting back from Afghanistan, and then before going to Qatar.

Also at Balad myself for a month, never been to Afghanistan though. Spent most of my desert days at UAE(which was quite awesome btw,) thanks Chair Force.

Anyways, stay safe dood.

I'm heading to balad, i heard it's pretty cool over there they told me they have a huge pool. I'm only going to be there for a few months so i'm lucky considering some of them army and marine guys are out there for a year.

Balad is nice, 2 pools actually 1 indoor, 1 outdoor, Movie Theatre, Subway, Pizza Hut, Taco Bell. Big BX, Bazzar right next door. Oakley store. 4 Really nice chow halls. Dorms are nice, at least the AF ones were lol.
