"Another Day in Eye-Rack" [W. Thomas Smith Jr.]
BAGHDAD (A little after 1:00 a.m.) — Flew in just after midnight aboard a CH-46 Sea Knight from Al Taqaddum; landing first in Fallujah (dropping off and picking up some Marines), then to Camp Liberty next to Victory out at the airport (dropping off some Marines and picking up some soldiers). Finally, we roared into Landing Zone Washington.
Inside the terminal, waiting for my ride from the Army's press information office, I asked a desk sergeant if there was any news I might have missed from today in Baghdad. He reared back in his chair, smiled, and said:
Nah, brother. A boom here. A boom there. But it's all good. Just another day in Eye-Rack.
I'll be here in Baghdad for a few days.
