Even though the conditions were austere, we always seemed to make the best of things as a team. I really miss that about Iraq. Like all of my public videos, everyone depicted here returned home safely after the tour.
In this clip, the platoon settles in for Christmas Eve while covering Quick Reaction Force duties at our forward outpost in eastern Baghdad. This was a rotating duty as the designated infantry platoon to assist any units in the area that came under attack and call for help. We would stay here for a week or 2 at a time while assigned to cover this duty, then return to our main Forward Operating Base (FOB) and return to normal patrolling. This video highlights what was much of our day-to-day life Iraq in 2004 whenever we weren't out on patrol.
Enjoy, and please continue to show some class in your comments. My videos are not a commentary on the political or strategic (or even combat-specific) aspects of the Iraq war, just the human side of life there at the time.
