MI: Soldier Abroad

The War Inside My Head blog is written by “Sky Soldier,” a guy from around these parts [SE Michigan]. His most recent posting reflects the fact that he’s now landed in Kuwait and is undergoing more training. Some of it is good: “I did get an awesome haircut here though, the guy shaved my head, massaged my scalp, powdered my scalp and gave me a 3 minute neck massage all for 6 bucks, pretty cool.” Some of it is not so good: “You would think it would be nice to have a breeze or even some wind to cool you down but all it is is hot air blowing that is filled with sand. Seriously it is like having someone chase you down with a giant hair dryer and a sandblaster, absolutely miserable.” [Source]
