Default Hello from Baghdad!

Just figured I'd introduce myself. My name is John, I'm 21 and currently deployed out in Iraq. Moving from Detroit to Bakersfield, CA once I get home. I've owned a 99 Mustang GT and 02 Mustang V6. Had to sell both a while back. Looking to pick up another GT once I get home, but this time it'll have to be an auto. Getting surgery on my left ankle, so a clutch is out of the question. Hopefully I'll be able to go to a few meets, and maybe hit the drag strip with a few of you.

Thanks. I'm with the 177th MP BDE out of Victory. Any idea where you guys are headed yet? 3ID runs things out here, so I doubt you'd end up here.

As for stay safe...ironically, 15 minutes ago the mosque -100 yds away from my office just got the **** mortared out of it. I was sitting outside smoking when the air raid siren went off. I've never sprinted so hard up stairs in my life. They dropped 5-6 not more than 100 yds from me. I couldn't hear **** or stop shaking for a while. I love this ****ing place...
