Hehe, TASO patch for the win!
Just waiting for the day my brother gets shipped over there. He's an Arabic speaker too, so the chances are highly likely. That would make two of us who've served over there.
I hope everyone comes home safe!!

Where was that picture taken? Possible it is the Ziggurat of Ur?

I am in Talill at the moment too. Only I am a civilian contractor. It was pretty cool to run across this.

Serving in the International Zone (formerly the Green Zone) myself. Can't wait to make it back home and get down on some bb slinging.

You know it's not really the original, right? It was "reconstructed" under Saddam's attempt to raise patriotism, and is more or less one interpretation of what the original may have looked like. Still very impressive, hope Iraq is safe enough some day to visit and see that and the Iraqi National Museum. Too bad Afghanistan's monuments did not fare so well.
From all us archaeologists, keep up the good work, and stay safe.

Are you Matt Damon? 
Plenty of plastic awaiting you in the US. Get on that plane.
