4. Good to hear he's okay.
Hope they don't send him back for another tour (some guys are already on their third)...his contract up, or is he staying in?

Hopefully, there will be more who tell the truth instead of saying that Iraq is the happiest place in the middle-east

I can only imagine how wonderful it must feel to him to know he won't be going back there.
