My brother

Many of you know my brother Jonathan is a Captain in the Army. We are all very proud of him & his accomplishments. He is a Physician Assistant and currently in an Emergency Room residency for PA's in the state of Washington. We are very happy he is in the states after spending time in Iraq & Afghanistan.

If you remember at the start of this war, paratroopers jumped in to secure the northern part of Iraq since Turkey was not letting us in through their country. I will always remember watching the news and hearing them announce that the troops have landed. It was exciting but scary to think of what my brother would be experiencing.



Well, Jonathan sent an email yesterday that I thought you should see. The picture came with these words from Jonathan:



"the story behind the pic is we were sick of eatingMREs for three months in Iraq, so myself (on the left)and Rahman (right, Turkish SF) went in search of otherfood sources...."
Ok, so I really am an animal-lover & feel badly for this poor squirrel...but I could not stop laughing at this. At first glance I really thought this was a giant Iraqi rodent! Too funny...thanks Jon!
