BOOM

BOOM!!!!! What the hell was that? We all venture outside to see what was going on. I made it to the top of the steps when boom and then the sound of something flying through the air. It has begun again. A long night. The sound of the rocket cutting through the air really cuts deep. I heard it launch cut through the air and then impact. I am so thankful that they do not know how to aim these things. They get so close but so far we have been untouched. How long will they miss? We loaded up in the HUMMV and drove to check on our troops. My roommate is a 26 year old medic. He was born on the same day as I was only several years later than I. He is good at what he does. The day of the VBED right outside the wall he went out. He rendered aid to one of the soldiers in the vehicle that was destroyed by the VBED. We checked on the troops and then drove some of the perimeter. “there is a hole in the wall on the Victory” the voice on the radio reported to higher. Will this hole enabled them to get in? Would they come in and risk the chance of fight us face to face instead of trying to deal death from afar? It seems that the cowardess of these people is growing. Most are not willing to die for their cause.
