So I get a call from my Brother last night. He is an EMT here in Ga. Seems he has decided to take a job with the Govt. for a year. He will be headed to Mosul Iraq in a couple of weeks to work in a clinic on an Army base with the 101st... At first I thought he must be kidding... Nope, he's going... To give you a little background on him his first post was with a mech. inf. unit at the Fulda gap before the wall fell. He was one of the youngist Capt's in the Army back during Desert Storm with the 24th Inf Div. He got out and became an ordained minister in the Metodist Church. He decided to go back into the military as a chaplain, the Army wouldn't take him due to his reserve rank being a Major at that time. So he went Navy, who backed him down to O-3 LT. He was assigned to a Marine unit for the whole time he was in... He got back out and became an EMT (actually he was almost cert. before he went in, had done the EMT/Fireman part time while a Preacher). He's been doing EMT work for several years now... The $ being offered has a lot to do with his taking this job... I just don't know if I like the thought of him being over there these days... I know he can take care of himself if need be, but needless to say I'm still more than a little worried...
Anyway, enough of my rambling... :?
