Iraq tour 4

So I am off for another tour in Iraq. This is my 4th tour now. I have a couple friends that have stayed over there since 2004/2005 timeframes. That’s insane! Those guys are pretty dedicated to stay over there and sacrifice alot of their personal lives to be there that long. I guess I would rather be in Iraq than Afghanistan. Afghanistan is pretty sketchy now. Maybe in a year or so I can hit Afghan back up.

So the goal now is to go for a year and then check and see what I want to do. No more yearly+ planning when it comes to contracting. I’m getting burned out. Too many assholes to deal with on the leadership and work level. I guess that’s everywhere you go though.
