New Digs!

We officially took over from 1st Armored Division on Monday, and with every flag change comes reorganization. We moved offices on Monday out of the HQ building. The G4, logistics office, which is supply, transportation, maintenance, and contracts was segmented all over the HQ building. We are all under one roof, so it really makes it easy to staff work between the sections and the Colonel for approval.

This is the HQ building during the transition ceremony.

This is an M1 tank with the kids student of the month sticker on the bumper! "My child was student of the month at Hale Kula Elementary."

Here is the new building, we do have windows but covered with blast panels. We also have 2 concrete bunkers in the front for protection if needed.

These are views from the roof top patio area. The air traffic control tower is for Baghdad International Airport. The lake is "Z" lake due to its shape when looking from the air.

This is my new office which is very nice. The Colonel let me pick which one I wanted. We completed the move today and got everything working again, phones and computers. The people that moved out tried to hijack my couch but we recovered it from those "thieves" today.

I am doing well and want to thank everyone for the boxes of food and other life support things! I am keeping myself busy with mostly work,  but made the time to run a half marathon on Sunday. I didn't plan on doing it, but it seemed like a good idea until the 11 mile mark.  I did finish it in 1 hour 51 minutes. so not a bad time either!  I really appreciate the wonderful support for myself and my family.
