I didn't leave the base once this week. We allegedly had a brigade-ordered standdown this week to show that we respect the sovereignty of the Iraqi people as the status of forces agreement forces us out of their cities. Of course, since my job entails almost nothing but going into cities...
But naturally, the idiot leadership of the battalion to whom I am attached decided to send people out anyways. One platoon got kicked off an Iraqi Army base, another got told not to return to a certain village. It's all quite hilarious. For better or worse, it's their country now.
