I will not be sending my diary out anymore because of the allegations being spread through the media. I will keep my diary and maybe someday the truth of what is and has gone on here will surface instead of the uniformed incorrect allegations. I was not here when the alleged incidents occurred. In fact, majority of the investigation stuff that was going on here wrapped up not long after my arrival. There are some people being dragged through the mud and it is a shame. Whatever happened here before I got here will be addressed and justice will be served on those responsible.
We have a group of wonderful patriots here in the CACI people. These men and women came over here because they wanted to serve their country and they knew they could contribute due to their previous service to their country.
I was blessed with the news that our second son was born on the 2nd of May, but I am here. Coming here and being apart from my wife, son and now sons was a decision that has been difficult. I get to go home and see them soon, but it is small consolation since I will be back over here two weeks later. Yes, I could quit, but a commitment was made and I will honor it because we are doing good things here. I wish the media would have shown some effort sometime in the last year to discuss the fact that 80 percent of the children in this country are now immunized, or the fact that 1500 schools have been renovated and reopened so children can receive an education. The number and staffing of hospitals in Iraq has tripled in the last year. Millions are drinking uncontaminated water for the first time in their lives. Electrical output capabilities in the country have more than doubled in the last year. ALL of these things are a result of the sacrifice and dedication of the Americans in and out of uniform here. Not one of these items have been reported on.
After the terrorist attacks in Spain, their people voted in favor of the terrorists. If we surrendered to the terrorists after September 11, 2001, maybe we would not have lost the Americans in combat that we have to date. Then again, the men, women, and children who were killed in the airplanes, World Trade Center, and Pentagon did not have an opportunity to decide their fate. In the same manner, the media is deciding the fate of random names without knowing the truth. They are not only ruining innocent lives, they are going after families while the individuals are over here.
God, Bless America and please God, Damn those who trample on it and it ideals.
I would like to see you have the conversation that you are having on this board with this guy. If you are an American, you will put your liberal views aside and realize that we are doing good things in Iraq.
