Bagram ain't bad compared to some of the places I've been. When I was in Al Udeid, they wouldn't serve you in the chow hall unless you had your Military I.D. in a holder hung around your neck.

I appreciate it, but don't thank me, I'm just an aircraft mechanic. It's the other branches doing all the hard work.

Al Udeid is a damn summer camp.

I hope you aren't suggesting otherwise.
