I had my first day off in Tallil today, I sleep for the most part. I took some picture of Hooch and a concrete hangar that surrounds the place. The picture has the temple of Ur in the far background. The trailer in front, is the laundry that shirts disappear in. I found out yesterday the Temple tours are going to start again. I went over to the chapel today to try and get on the list. I posted a few photos today the
Picture Place. Just click on the folder Tallil and you will be magically take into the Tallil pictures. I am going to take some more pictures over the next couple of days.
This T-wall is outside the Romanian's camp. There is allot of banner type art on the T-walls in Tallil. The weather felt cooler today, it was getting up to a 100 degrees last week. We are having a USO show later this month, a couple of comedians. I added some pictures of Tallil to the Picture Place
This the Zigurrat which is right outside of Tallil / Adder airbase. It is the supposed birth place of Father Abraham. The Zigurrat is off limits to all Tallil personel. I heard there was some defacement to the monument. I guess everyone wants to write joe's been here and crap like that. I will try to get over there. but we will have to see.It is hotter and dustier in southern Iraq. There are many army soldiers and there is a Air Force Base here too. The Romanians have a base here too, its called Fort Dracula. I will sent some pictures. I had some shirts stolen from the laundry. I then started taking to the laundry drop and they lost my pants. I going to be down to my underware soon. I guess thats life in the big city. I have to watch my laundry closer.
