  • Come and see Iraq as a tourist!
  • Working in Iraq
  • Most troops out of Iraq in 18 months
    • ]]>

    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.

A kickass logo and banner has been designed by a good friend of mine Robert La Follette. I really needed some kind of identity to represent my site, videos and pictures. This is something I should have done years ago.

    Robert is a highly acclaimed graphic designer and has worked in many industries as a production and graphic designer as well as a creative director. Working in such projects, in both web and print design, for such organizations as The Office of the President of the United States, The US House of Representatives, Department of Education, State of Florida, and many more government and federal agencies, Robert’s design work has set new standards in the industry.

    So if you are searching for website and design work, or a professional photographer that has been in National Geographic and People magazine, check out Robert La Follette.
