Not sure if this is the proper etiquette on an update.

But for all those who gave me input- Thank you!

I took the job.

Great pay, great schedule.

Will be moving to Bangkok sometime in July after my first 28 day rotation, looking for an apartment.

I'm leaving for Dubai this Monday for processing. Very excited.

Thanks again.

Good luck.

Let us know how it goes.

Will be in Basra, south of Iraq, close to the Iranian border.

I'm working Kurdistan regularly and will give any tips I can via PM.

Baghdad? Take care, as in much more so than LOS. Are you small-arms trained/familiar?

Sadr City red light district is boring. only some old Shia goats doing a bit of pole dancing wearing some sort of burqa i do mean a small compound half way between Baghdad and Osiraq which we called Bad'r City (emphasis on bad) during my time. but then "my time" was many rainy seasons ago (1981) and i'm afraid the "city" does not exist anymore.

Dont they give you a crash course on that during the processing?
