AF Day 069

FOB Smart at 1400 - Friday

Friday afternoon and work is helping make my day glide by. With no missions today and several tomorrow, including eight stops, I am enjoying the slow pace of this day.

I am ready to begin wearing my third uniform iteration since my arrival. I started out wearing USACE-issued Desert Camouflage Uniforms (DCUs), then incorporated the Army Combat Uniform (ACUs), and today received my first sets of Operation Enduring Freedom Camouflage Pattern or "multi-cam" uniform (OCPs). Wearing the multi-cam will allow me to blend in rather than stand out in a crowd of security personnel assigned to provide me protection during my missions outside the wire. I am eager for this change. I will post photos soon...

I do not have any big plans for tonight, other than a movie and some chai with my chai guys. Not as exciting as say, Las Vegas, but enough for happiness and contentment no doubt. I have roughly 48 days to go until I see my family again for a two-week R&R; now that is exciting!

143, K&K.

Good night and good day.
