Deployment Day 73

Leroy has moved to the new camp. Kristin called last week to let us now he moved. Here is his first email to us from the new camp.

looks like mayfield just didn't have any speed yesterday at
all...things are going good brand new patrol base...we have
to pee down long pvc pipes that lead outside the wire...and
for #2? well they burn it when we're done...sound like fun?
sleeping in a room that is smaller than your bathroom with
7 guys...no power...and yesterday morning we got hit by a
couple mortars no damage though everything is going great
I love it...I work from 8-4 during hte day and then pull a
6 hour shift over at mwr where i hand out computers and
stuff like that...taking care of phone lines and
internet...it ain't that bad I kinda like it...it's about
300 meters square...hanging out with guys from 3rd ID
they're from fort stewart georgia...they're just finishing
up theyre 15 month deployment...and heading home in the next
couple weeks i will talk toyou latere say hi to everyone
everythings going good

Leroy
