Chris' Deployment Journal

Our plywood 'dining facility', although it's too small to actually dine in. One squad will travel the 10 miles to the air base and pick up breakfast or dinner (lunches are on our own, burgers cooked by the interpreters' wives for $2 per, or just on our own - aka from care packages) and it's laid out here in those green 'mermite' insulated containers. We'll then eat back in our squad areas. Dinners are often the uneaten lunch leftovers from the airbase.
