“I may get called in again who knows?”

Well I guess I shouldn’t have said that, because I got called in again that night, even earlier than the night before. Also this time it was my gruop of guys rioting, they where a little smarter though, they only burned down the tents not the buildings, but they then took the tent poles and fashioned them into clubs and other make shift weapons. Iwas posted on the perimeter fence with my lethal gun incase they broke through, I would be the one to engage them. It was kinda scarey to see. We knew they had plans to break out and try to get into our control center, they probably came closer than they realize. Well I still didn’t get much action, however we did get to go in and work on cleaning up the mess other the last two days. I was exhausted after that day though, I think I slept for about 9 hours, it was great. I definetly wanted to stay in bed though, Well thats it for now. 

Another long day

Well I had a few moments of hopefullness that I would see some action today, I did actually see a little.  I was woke up early to respond to a riot in progress, I was one of the first responders of off duty personnel, so we got shields and went to the riot to play. I ended up just getting stuck with the team leader running around with him. I didn’t even get to see anyone shoot. I guess most of it was conrtolled by the time we actually got there however the next area had set their buildings on fire so they burned to the ground, that was kinda cool.  I ended up going on and continuing with my shift, then after a while, our guys got mad and refused to do what we said. So we prepared to get ugly, I had two stinger grenades,two riot shields, a huge can of OC pepper spray, an entire box full of non lethal ammo, and 420 rounds of lethal. I was also the one guy that had the best vantage point to get them. But after about 40 minutes, they where told if they didn’t do what we wanted they wouldn’t get their tea(chai). They then finally decided to cooperate. I was really quite upset because then, that had two adrenaline rushes that were wasted on nothing, Well because of the previous riot, the other shift of workers were told they could come in late. So towards the end of the shift we were definetly ready to go home, when we hear a call come over the radio about the same group from the beginning breaking through one of the fences, we were ready to hit the scene and take them down but it was, apparently not that bad yet, then by the time we got off I guess it was some what under control again, although the day is definetly not over yet I may get called in again who knows?

Comm lockdown

Over the period of the last few days we have had a communication lockdown. The phones and internet even the stuff we pay for has been locked so we couldn’t use it. Reason being; a convoy out of here was hit with an IED and killed one and severly injured another, so until their families could be notified we were all on lockdown. The good news is comm is up again and I have tonight off, so I can call.

I went ahead and bought my xbox 360, I bought it new from the BX here. I have a few things I could use to go along with it though. I want more games, the selection here isn’t very good. Basically there are seven different sports games and thats about it. I tried to go through Amazon.com but of course they don’t want to ship games to APO adresses. Particular ones I want are; Gears of War, Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter 2, Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six: Vegas, others that I thing I would probably enjoy but don’t really have to have are ; F.E.A.R., Crackdown, Call Of Duty 3. I also want an additional wireless controller for it. Now I know my brithday is coming up so I was thinking you could help me out, I don’t mind getting used games so long as they are in good condition, if you go through amazon.com you can get some good deals and look at the sellers ratings on used stuff. If you order anyof these items you’ll probably have to have it shipped to yourself then send it on to me. Well thats all I have for now, I will try calling Monday day yourtime if anyone wants to answer the phone this time.

New Gun

OK, I think I am going to buy a new gun when I get back, What kind should I get? I know I want a new handgun something a little smaller than my Sig 226, I like the Sig 229 SAS. I also want another rifle something I can just blast tons of cheap ammo through, like an AK-47. My friends both already have AK’s and I don’t want the samthing they have though, it just wouldn’t be as fun. This is your opportunity to spend my money on gun stuff, so tell me your thoughts and ideas and help me pick out a new gun.
