Default Brother in Law Sent Pics From Iraq

Hey lets hope my brother in law Rick can make it out of Iraq in 3 weeks.
Its his 2nd time over there and this time they get mortared almost every day. He gets to come home in mid January and then has to go back one more time in May..
He's in the Air Force Reserve and has been for about 25 years, besides being a mechanic for UPS here in the USA.
Heres some pictures from todays email: Kirkuk Base :
