Chris' Deployment Journal

I think this Jake Smith pic of me (making a teddy bear-like face) pretty much says it all, with a SAW in one hand and teddy bear in another. Unfortunately I wasn't able to give out the teddy bear yet as I have to be careful with it. Essentially I want to give it to a little girl but I have to find one alone, without other kids around (who would go ballistic and all start begging me for one), who is right outside her house, so that she can run inside before any boys rip it out of her hands.
