[MrFun]

I'm can't be arsed to read the thread to see if someone already brought this question up . . . . .


why aren't U.S. troops being sufficiently supplied with the armor that they need now?

To All:

Our parents got a call from Oerdin this morning. All is well for him, he said it was "quiet". He was in a place called al-Kut, not Najaf... Sadly, they were out, so it was a message on the machine... Wanted to pass it along, however. I will try to keep the info comming, as I get it... Don't know about the internet connection where is is, or how long he will be there...

Thank You for the update. Do you guys have a regular communication schedule worked out? With Oerdin's internet access limited for the next 90 days it would be real nice if you could keep us informed that he is doing okay.

[oerdin's sis]

No set communication schedule, but I will try to let you all know when we hear from him... I personally have miss a call from him twice in the last two weeks, but I will do my best to keep you "in the know"

Thanks, it's much appreciated.

[PLATO]

Yes, very much!

[oerdin's sis]

Had a call from Oerdin about 20 minutes ago. He is still in al-Kut, and quite happy to be there. Has not heard a moarter round or been shot at in 2 weeks! He wanted you all to know he is keeping notes on his lap top, for posting when he gets internet access. Says he can barely get supplies from the amry in al-Kut, much less mail either in comming or out going. al-Kut is 40 -45 miles north - north west of Najaf and most people are Sadr supporters, but have not taken up arms. He is in an old air force base that was abandoned after the Iran-Iraq war. All in all, he sounded good, although the connection on the satalite phone was a little shakey...


More next time I hear anything....
