newest from afghanistan--words from dad

A rocket apparently aimed at Camp Eggers slammed into a nearby location outside a store 200 meters as the crow flies from our facilities, causing one injury to a store guard but resulting in no other casualties. This was the first rocket I have been close enough to have felt the real dangers of rockets. The concussion was much like a bomb—in fact initially I grabbed the AK-47 and ran out of my room to check on our people—fearing that there might be a coordinated attack underway. The guards met me and asked for Mozhdah—and told her that it was a rocket. I didn’t hear it screaming in—but Fahim heard it from his home (about 700 meters away)—but he knows what they sound like. I heard only the ka-boom. As close as it was, it didn’t cause any glass breakage—so it wasn’t nearly as powerful as the car bomb from before Christmas.

Suprise!!

We surprised my family--john and camille knew we were coming home but nobody else. I told them i had to be back in Tennessee monday, but we were actually driving up from idaho where we spent christmas w/ Jess family. Here's the video.
