Here is Eric's latest e-mail home.....    
> Howdy,

 

 This is a mass e-mail to a lot of people, once again. I included  pictures this time. One is of my Sgt. in the C-130 we flew in while  in Iraq. There is also one of our first sand storm which was not a lot  of fun because sand gets everywhere! A cool one of night through NVG's  I can't say what of. There is a good example of an Iraqi vehicle. Of  course I had to include a pic of me, it's not the greatest but I am  holding an AT-4 (Rocket - our version of the RPG). The sun in the  desert is cool. The last is of the toys they let us play with.

 

 We have been working 8 to 12 hours shifts depending on what rotation  we are doing for that period of time. Nothing too exciting going on. We just  went through the elections, pretty boring nothing happened that effected us.  We were told that we will not be able to go trick or treating in the towns on halloween, which was slightly disappointing.

 

 In case you do not know a lot about the Marine Corps our slogan is  "Change is Constant." That being said, our address has changed again,  we don't know why. IF you sent anything to me I will still get. The  only change is instead of "Force Protection" it is "Area Security."
