Title: Update from Iraq
Post by: headhuntersix on December 03, 2009, 10:40:34 PM
I'm here.....anyway I'll post some quick observations.

I'm in Kirkuk....its where the Kurds and Arabs meet..they don't like each other but we're making it work. We've pulled back from all or most of the cities south of Bagdad and we're one of the last major areas where we're still in the city. AQ is pretty much done. We and the ISF..Iraq Security Forces still get IED's but the IED experts are long dead..and the IED's are usually inaffective. THE ISF has taken the lead in killing or capturing the shitbags and we're limited in acting alone. Only SOF can do what they want to do without permission or letting ISF know whats going on and most of their ops are with ISF SOF anyway. I live in a tin can..plenty of gyms and food is good but Afghanistan was better. Kid Rock was here yesterday and we got plenty of pics. I wake up to machine gun fire every morning..it adds to the ambiance. I'm headed to a IDP or refugee camp on monday, that should prove interesting. Neither the Kurds or Arabs are interested in seeing us leave despite what the Iraqi gov might say...their military would prefer us stick round...especially the Kurds....I will post some pics etc soon.

Thanks for what you do bro.

Are the Iraqi SOFs any good?

Pics? 

I don't know if you remember...but I mentioned I like watching tanks just blow shit up with their 120mm.  Can you get some video of that?   ;D

Stay safe.

My guys are filming a range today....so I can see what we get. Honestly besides our SOF..we're not doing alot of door kicking. All the action is in Afghanistan. Our Bde is a heavy Bde and we didn't bring a single tank...we have plenty of MRAP varients...all mad maxed out with sensors and armor and crap.

Bde = Brigade

MRAP = Mine Resistant Ambush Protected vehicles.

What are the temps like HH6?  Still brutally hot or cooling down?
