Eric is heading back to Iraq
Long time readers of BON and my old blog will remember a college friend of mine named Eric who is an officer in the U.S. Army.  I was on his email distribution list when he was in Iraq and I and posted all of his letters on my two blogs. He was actually injured by a car bomb back on Aug 1, 2005 and was sent home to heal. Here’s a picture of him after the car bomb.
I actually have a picture of both of us together when he had a layover at DFW, but for the life of me I just can’t find the darn thing.
Well, I just got word from him that he’s heading back to Iraq.  As he writes, I’ll make sure to post his letters as soon as I get them. His first letter is after the jump.
