Iraq: What I remember


Take 10 minutes and look through this set of memories on Iraq. Each picture has a caption describing the related memory. Cathie's Uncle posted these on Facebook recently and I was mesmerized going through them. The pictures are beautiful, but the combined with the description, they paint a really thoughtful view of what it's like over there.


I'd posted this last year when he got back from Iraq in a situation where he almost died and his friends did:
David had some amazing stories, but the one depicted by this piece of glass below was wild. The piece of glass on his mantle was the same piece in the picture in the lower left hand corner. He'd been in this vehicle with two others when they were hit. Only he and one other guy survived. The glass in this picture is about 4 inches thick and saved him.
