An update on chris, for all who are wondering..... He is doing well and in good spirits, but really wanting to come home, , he misses everything and everyone back home, they have him doing a different job then the one he was supposed to be doing.So he says the time passes a little faster. I have sent a few big packages and send letters or cards as often as i can. I talk to him online almost daily so its nice to be able to talk to him often. but yeah thats whats goin on w him, thought id post up here to give ya'll an update.
thanx for all of you who want to help our guys/ gals overseas, I know it really helps them out alot to know that they have so many people at home who care. and a BIG thanks to Chris, and all of our other brave Men and Woman over seas fighting for our country, you really do make a difference in our world and we thank you for your bravery!

I live on a tiny combat outpost comprised of 5 houses we took over from Iraqis. We got a generator out here for power, put up some walls and BANG a working American Joint Security Station. We live with the Iraqi Army on the JSS. We are in Baghdad, working with them doing joint patrols. I am an infantyman with the 101st Airborne Division, AIR ASSAULT!! If you dont know what that is, watch Blackhawk Down, that is what I do, right down to the fast roping. I have been in the army for 4 years, 4 more to go. I re-enlisted on my year long first tour to Iraq, and retruned a year later. I currently have been in country for 8 months, 7 more months until we return, 3 short months until I can get some leave. Woot!

Here are some things I could use:

Microwavable food
Any horse magazines i.e. Spin to Win, Western Horseman etc
Louis L'amour books
Slim Jims
Cotton roping gloves (I practice my team roping over here)
A Classic XS 30' head rope (wierd I know but roping practice helps a lot)
Anything diesel related
One of them stickers to stick on my humvee and take a pic of
ANYTHING ELSE YOU CAN THINK OF!!!

Really, anything y'all sent, would be great for my men and myself. I really appreciate the people like you all out there who support us.
Here's my address:

Warman, Bryan, SPC
HHT 1/75 CAV
2 BCT 101ABN
UNIT #43485
APO AE 09344

Thank, again!
We have a Box Full Of Goodies heading to you i will ship Monday

Oh man that is great. Its getting really really hot here right about now, so morale is starting to take a dive. I contacted my dude that handles the mail, and he will make sure it finds its way to me ASAP. Sounds awesome, and thank you, again.
