Actually worse, civilian contractor. This is my second tour to Iraq with General Dynamics. Im just a Stryker mechanic going out to support the real heros out there.





Thanks for the warm wishes though, I appreciate it.

Sounds good, but if you're really making the moolah and you wouldn't buy my BR intake for 50% off, drinks and boobies are on you!

You got me there. Okay deal, free boobies and drinks on me when I get home.

Its awesome seeing how many Evo guys are turning out to be our boys out there down range. I know I speak for at least 95% of us contractors, but its a privilage to be out in the field supporting you guys. If we could give our pay up to ensure the next ICV Stryker doesnt get hit by an IED, let alone another lost casualty anywhere down range, we'd do it in a heartbeat. Not to mention you guys in service should be making AT LEAST as much as us for what you do out there. Unfortunately that difference causes alot of tension between service members and DOD contractors in the field.
