This is my see you later thread.... I don't know if I will have access to sites such as this once I leave (If you don't know I'm in the US Army and I'm heading to Iraq)... So this is my see you later thread....

I wanna thank everyone for the fun posts to read, and the help in the Beginner Tech and Tech forums...

Don't worry though I have to come back... I've had over 500 downloads of my AGS Demo, so I have to come back and finish it for you all...

Oh, thats what a guy wants to hear before he goes to Iraq as apart of the US army, "Don't Get Killed"...

Nice way to send him off...

Bye Alynn, hope you get back soon... or at least find some internet cafe (if they have them?) to post to tell about the sights (dirt), the sounds (chaos) and the smells (sewer)...

Peter Thomas · Fri 09/04/2004 23:18:40

Take care, Alynn!

Make us proud.

(And then write a game about it

)

Most of the people in "conflict" are in conflict by accident.. that is, they're guarding some street corner and then a man or child with a bomb strapped under his shirt walks up and chaos insues.. Right now the biggest threat is from the cleric who declared he would die before the US would rule his homeland, but there's no army to march on, they work with small localized attacks.

My best wishes, watch your back. I would say enjoy the sights (Iraq has some amazing architecture in its temples) but I don't think it's really safe to be walking around as an American soldier in the streets of Iraq right now..

.... words of comfort and peace from above....

although I guess it doesn't hurt to say be careful...

It would be smart if the military used undercover people instead of full battledress, just a guy with a bullet proof vest and an ak47 is less of a target then a us soldier

Akumayo · Sat 10/04/2004 02:26:46

May Odin give you protection

unfortunately the vest doesn't quite cut it when you have to deal with suicide bombers....

....not that you'll have to face any.....of course....naturally...

As white as I am, I would be sticking out like one hell of a big thumb, and plus, the people defending their home land from us ruling it, which we aren't going to anyways, would most likely know most of the people living in their area, and if all of the sudden 40,000 non-saudis started shopping in your market, and drinking from your well, you might grow suspicious.

I'm sorry to see you go, but I do salute what you are doing. I back you all the way. You are doing a very noble thing. Hurry back.
