I worked at Cedar for the 11 months after I left Tallil, then went to Speicher for 8 months, then spent the last 2.5 months at Al Asad...So are you down at the 3 big buildings down the street from the MWR?? That is where I used to work at when I was there...I am trying to be a little vague cause of big scary OPSEC...

I know...I was sad to hear that...I loved that base...I was maintenance for 2 months and then spent 9 months running maintenance at the fuel yard...

A girl that works at the local bar/grill here in town has a boyfriend that does the Virginia to Tallil run as convoy security...I was talking to her yesterday...
 
i was at Cedar back in 04. THe Fuel stop used to be ut on the highway and we shut it down and gae the Highway back to the IRaqis and moved the fuel stop onto Cedar back then. I am Air Force and we filled in for an Army POL Company

Besides Baghdad...Its one of the busiest bases in Iraq...That is the jumping off point for direct flights back to Germany...The last full brigade left last week...I liked Al Asad but it kind of sucked for us contractors cause we were so far away from everything and we only have 7 computers that we can use in the MWR and the stinking ass Ugandans are in there by the hundreds...
 
I hated Al Asad! My platoon got so friggin lost on that place after we left AQ in 06. We didnt know
there were different bus routes.
