Do I get scared? If I were to blow up and die on (the road to Baghdad), I would rather do that knowing that I'm accomplishing something than to die of cancer or something. My children are young, and I want to live for a long time. My license plate says 'LUV2LIV.' I do not want to run over an IED in Baghdad. But I have peace with God. I'm not really afraid. |
I've been thrown into it more than once. |
It was a new unit at the checkpoint, and new units are always pretty hardcore. We pulled up and (a soldier) puts his face in the car and says, 'Slow down. You have a .50 caliber pointed at the back of your head. Of course it was pointed at the back of my head, because I was in the back seat. |
My dad asks if I'm safe, and I send him pictures of all these gorgeous men with guns and body armor. |
We had to figure out who would sign these invoices for these companies. Nobody actually signed the invoice, so they never got paid. |
What we're really good at is what's called the 'last mile.' We can help companies with everything they need as far as documents go, getting them through customs, making sure their stuff is going to get moved to where it will be inspected. |
