29 Jan

If all goes well today, this will be our last day of "two-a-day" logistics meetings - thank goodness. Today I had a total of 6 different meetings and none of them included any mouse sightings! Fortunately, all the meetings went well - the Iraqi Staff is taking a hands-on approach to the daily tasks and one-by-one they are checking items off the to-do list. As you can imagine I could never do this job with out the help from the Interpreters. Above is a picture of one of the interpreters, his name is Ali. He was in the Iraqi Army up until 2003 when the Iraqi Army was disbanded. He is one of the better interpreters we have here at my location; he speaks and understands English very good and he is always taking notes to learn more English. That's about all from Iraq today, until tomorrow...
