you know i think ive done alot you know i pretty good amount of stuff for my time but im always so distant i guess from my feelings and well i dont really kno where im going with this post but heres a story:
it must have been one of my first convoys or mabe because time has passed so much 3 or 4 different convoys that melted into this one story but thats how it goes doesnt it, well i digress, i was stationed at camp falujah i never spell that right anyway and i had a resupply mission to bagdad and well someone herd there was a burgerking there and so i took orders form my friends and sgts to pick up some burgers, i dnt think they relized how far away bagdad is from fahloujah its like driving from longisland to canada anyway so when i got there during the worst convoy ever because i along with maybe 20 other marines were stuffed into the back of this 7ton truck with thin plated armor only covering us upto our shoulders and no cover over our head except our kevlars , thats our helmets, so i get to bagdad and sure enoff on base theres this little trailer with a sign that says BURGERKING i was really excited i was sick of eating MREs and chowhall food so i ran right into that this surreal burgerking and wiated online to order this greasy dream of a whopper, the whole experiance was wierd it didnt look like a burgerking except for food you couldnt sit down and eat it in there just order and go and it was all hajis serving us and cooking for us its just not how you imagine it like home you know thats why i realy wanted it because it would makeme just feel like i was home for one second if i could just close my eyes and sit in a burger king i could have imagained there was no war outside no sand no hajis no guns and no worries but it didnt happen like that i was served my whoppers and walked right back into the sand and but my mouth was watering and all that stuff dissapeared when i unwrapped my double whopper with cheese and stuffed it in my mouth OH MY GOD it was delicous i was home again.
PS it went out as fast as it went in i spent the very next halfhour sitting in a portashitter cursing fucking burgerking
