"The past few days on the FOB have been the normal same ol stuff…meetings, a little bit of work (very little), crappy food, the gym, and sleep…that’s about it…there are more indications of bad guys entering the area and BOLOs(Be On the Look Out) for suicide car bombers…we had a convoy up to the northern area of our province and on the way back, after passing one of our Combat Out Posts(COP) the COP got hit with three mortar rounds…actually the rounds hit outside the COP because the bad guys have no accuracy—which is a good thing for us….no injuries or casualties…but, it just goes to show that the fight hasn’t slowed down at all due to the winter months…"
