A couple hours ago I came back to my office and thought about the days prior. It's hard to sit back and believe that one day, when I'm old and grey, I'll be able to tell my children, grandchildren and great grandchildren about all the cool adventures I've had. No one really knows and I can't explain the joy and awesomeness I experience when going out with a unit.
On July 8, I went on my first air assault mission. I'm not even air assault qualified but that didn't stop me! I was going anyway!... lol. It was so fast. It was so hot. It was so many different things I can't even describe. At times I had a hard time breathing cause the sand was all in the air. I wasn't letting anything stop me from accomplishing the mission and getting awesome footage.
The 1st Cavalry Soldiers and the Iraqi National Police were searching for a weapon's cache on a remote island in Baghdad. They didn't find anything but shell casings. Nevertheless, it was a memorable experience!
