Pictures from Iraq

Dave called Kelly Friday morning. He and his company were at Al Asad for a few hours because they are making their own supply runs now. It was also an opportunity to eat some fresh, healthy salad and get a haircut. Best of all, he was able to make a long phone call to Kelly on a REAL phone. What a blessing!

Kelly said that Dave asked her to pass along his gratitude for all the care packages. They not only meet many physical needs, but help him remember that he is loved and cared about by many people. Thank you, everyone!

Dave mentioned to Kelly that uniform regulations are being enforced much more strictly. No more mustaches and no more bandanas around the head to keep the sweat from dripping in their eyes. He's had to learn how to hold his mouth "just so" when he breathes, in order to avoid getting a mouthful of gnats.

Best of all . . . . Dave mailed Kelly the memory stick from his camera, and she sent us a few photos via email. Here they are:

This first picture was taken in April. The rest are from early to mid-May. Clicking on a picture will show you a larger version.















Thank you for your continuing to support Dave and ALL of our troops through prayer!
