Kuwait
As the bus pulled into the base in Kuwait, I gave a quick tour to a sergeant who hadn’t been through here before. When the bus stopped, everyone was quick to get up and the sergeant wondered aloud whether we should first find out what we were doing. I said that last time I was here, we took all of our stuff off the bus, waited on the other side of the street, and a few minutes later were told to get back on the bus. This time, we took all of our stuff off the bus, waited on the other side of the street, and a few minutes later were told to get back on the bus.
We will be here a few more days than the one day turn around. Rumor has it that when we were “extended” five days in Baghdad, someone forgot to rebook our flight.
