So, I after I post last night I go to the chow hall to eat. I just happen to sit next to our chief and we sat there talking. (During this time we were attacked, and had like 7-8 mortars hit, a few pretty close.. our battalion building was hit too… nobody hurt though. Pretty […]

“If this being is omnipotent, then every occurrence, including every human action, every human thought, and every human feeling and aspiration is also His work; how is it possible to think of holding men responsible for their deeds and thoughts before such an almighty Being?

Lets see… I woke up and took my uniforms into alterations so I’ll have a couple more SrA tops, and then went over to the Air Force side to see if there was something to do. I played a little counterstrike but that got boring when it was 2 on 1. (I could always kill […]

Ok, yesterday the computers (like all of them on base, for some reason) were doa. Phones too. (Well, the ones next to my tent anyways.) So I wrote nothing yesterday, but I’ll try to make up for it anyways. Yesterday we had three mortar attacks… so much for my perfect day. (At least that’s what […]
