Al Faw Palace and Aussie Football

"Baghdad is quite an interesting place. The base is actually comprised of several sub-camps named Slayer, Victory, Liberty, etc. I never thought living conditions in Iraq could get much better than Camp Fallujah, but Baghdad has us beat hands down. All you haters can direct your aggression at them, because they are living high on the Iraqi horse. Some live in berthing trailers, just like most bases, but many people live in actual houses on the base. Many of these houses are built on the side of a manmade lake, providing a pretty spectacular view. The house I stayed in had three functional heads (restrooms), each with its own shower. It was air-conditioned, had AFN television, and the residents had just negotiated a wireless internet access point for the house."
