I have added some recent photos. One is me standing next to my beautiful wife while wearing a leather kilt I had made in Baghdad . I gave my Utilikilt to a local and he copied it in leather. Not bad quality. The other new photo is an outing I had with the children and had the cosmotologist give me a new style. They all had new hair cuts, so I went along with them.

The iraqi made one looks nice. Who knows, we might start seeing imports of contemporary kilts from Iraq now!

Jay -
Nice to see the pics, and nice to see you posting.

I glance in at your blog every now and then, and always enjoy it. Stay safe, keep your head down, and double check your batteries!

Thanks Streetcar; I appreciate you checking out the blog. I sent my webmistress todays entry, but I warn you, the photos are graphic and it was my worst day yet. Would you believe, that today, my gps battaries died? I had spares in my tac vest, but the GPS was plugged into the cigarrett lighter. while I was in the fight my driver tried to give the MGRS to the medevac, he unplugged the GPS and lost our grid. Took a while to get off the x. I had the battaries....he didn't. One of these days I will get it correct.

Great pics. You may have started a whole new industry in Iraq!

Great shots Jay all the way around. I can tell that you really enjoy kilt wearing.

Saw your blog entry for today. Which led to me browsing the remainder of your blog. Woof..

You don't know me from Adam but you'll be in my prayers henceforth. Keep your focus, keep your faith and get home to that family of yours when your job's done.

Thank you everyone, there is no greater power then prayer, and it has been all of you praying for me that has brought me through so many attacks and fights. That, and the temporary confusion created by the kilt that allows me to get the first shot off.

Semper Fi,
