10 Mar - Saturday


Its a STAMPEDE...of sheep - if there is such a thing. I finally got the chance to meet and speak to a Shepard who had "wandered" into our area. This particular heard belong to a female Shepard who was not young or thin but she was doing a fair job of keeping up with the heard until they started to run. Through an interpreter we explained to her that this was land belonged to the Iraqi Army and she needs to keep her heard on the other side of the fence line. She politely agreed, and then she asked us where were the two Shepards that were detained yesterday. I told her I do not know the status of the two Shepards but the truth is they are still in our jail undergoing questioning. We realize the weather is very nice and the sheep need to get out and stretch their legs but unfortunately the Shepards will need to find a new location because with the build-up of Coalition troops also comes a build-up of security and force protection measures. Have a good night.
