Excerpts from Easter Letter from Soldier
+ We are told that our food supplies are down to 6-days of food left in the Green Zone. Of those 6 days, after tomorrow, it will be MREs. Water is about the same.

+ 82 convoys have been hit in the past 10 days. 200 civilian contactor truck drivers have quit their jobs to go home.

1. Well this is the group that can't seem to run anything!
Just what runs right in this country anymore? Bush could not run his own Corp. did any one hear think he could run this country? Be sides that half the people helping him are people the voters got rid of long ago. Even Tx was left in debt after Bush.

2. Halliburton is still hiring drivers
a co-worker from my state went to their website, and said they are paying $100,000/yr. I asked him if its worth his life though. He thinks it fairly safe, and worth the risk probably as he's had one dead end job after another. He also wants to open a bar, and could use the money for that. I hope he doesn't take it though.
