    Yeah it was a shithole.. LOL.. The gate you are standing by was moved. I believe I recall seeing that sign but not sure where. I stayed in the building with the lounge and 2 showers in the living area. I am sorry about your friend. The ones that didn't make it are the real heroes. Its nice to here the history of that base. Thank you

    my m9 didn't leave my tuff box the entire deployment. I wouldn't carry that thing if you payed me. And your right the m4 is due for a upgrade.
