What began as the journal of an old dude's first combat deployment, has resumed as my "writer's workout sessions."
Baghdad Time/Temp (Just in case I'm ever tempted to complain about the weather here in WA!)
The Leprechaun Has Returned
This is the journal of a 60 year old geezer-warrior who served his tour in Iraq, and came home to resume a "normal" life as an emergency management planner and weekend warrior ...
Although I intended to put away this blog once I exchanged my ACUs and body armor for Hawaiian shirts, cargo pants and fleece vests, I found myself missing the platform to write about the goofy stuff and the good stuff I see on a daily basis.
UPDATE: I returned to Active Duty for 14 months, was unceremoniously booted out upon reaching age 60, and am back planning for disasters and catastrophic incidents. I will now focus on becoming a proficient geezer-golfer, instead of keeping up with the youngsters who so graciously let me back in the family for a while longer. They have reinforced my belief in this generation of warriors!

ReplyDeleteWell, I hear you're at least back in the area, so that should help even the keel a bit. See you soon, I hope, before you make the big trip over and back.
