I think I’ve found the safest place in Iraq.

A big thank you to long time reader and staunch supporter of our troops, Anthony, for providing this week’s winning caption. My apololgies for being somewhat AWOL this past week and honestly, I’m not sure when things will settle down but I’ll try to steal some time for Sgt Hook. Thanks again to all who participated and hope you had a great weekend.

Sgt Hook out.

In view of a recent tendency to identify characters in fiction with real people, it seems proper to state that there are no real people in this volume: both the characters and their names are ficticious. The names or designations of any military units are ficticious. There are no living people nor existing military units presented in this book. -Ernest Hemingway

Fiddler's Green


Halfway down the road to hell,
In a shady meadow green,
Are the souls of all dead troopers camped
Near a good old-time canteen.
And this eternal resting place
Is known as Fiddler's Green.
