View Full Version : 10/4/04 My cousin is being transferred to Abu Ghraib igofast 10-04-2004, 04:57 PM Just got off the phone with pops, my cousin is being transferred from Korea to Abu Ghraib, where as many of you probably know, has been a pretty heavy target from opposing forces. It's times like these I wish I believed in God. Saison 10-04-2004, 05:01 PM That's rough, Igo. I hope your cousin's okay. There are some who would say that you don't have to believe in God, cause he believes in you. All the mush aside, my thoughts are with you & your family. Katalina 10-04-2004, 05:14 PM hang in there.. will all pray for you. FallenAngel 10-04-2004, 05:43 PM :( Like Shelly said, we'll all pray for you and your family :( jojo 10-04-2004, 09:16 PM i will Ponycar_302 10-05-2004, 12:24 AM Make sure he memorizes the phrase "STOP RESISTING!" No particular reason. :| Monster 10-05-2004, 12:36 AM Holy crap, man, that's rough. I hope he comes out of it alright (both mentally and physically). Keep us posted. Ponycar_302 10-05-2004, 12:42 AM Holy crap, man, that's rough. I hope he comes out of it alright (both mentally and physically). Mentally shouldn't be a problem. Unless he's working the wing/block that Graner and crew were he'll have an easy time. If he gets stuck there without prior training or experience he'll probably have a tough time. That's why Graner and Frederick worked that block; they knew how. Maybe I'll tell you some stories over lunch when we meet up. :) Monster 10-05-2004, 12:52 AM Sounds good. I'm most always willing to learn new things. :) Myrddin 10-05-2004, 09:40 AM I am guessing getting transferred there is not as bad as having to patrol the streets of Baghdad or having to go clear insurgents out of a city not in US control but still it is a pretty scary part of the world. Bad luck on his part, but wish him the best. igofast 10-05-2004, 02:33 PM If he gets stuck there without prior training or experience he'll probably have a tough time. I don't know the specifics of his military training, but he's older than me, so I assume he's got some skills/training that they want there cuz he wasn't supposed to be going to Iraq at all, then all of the sudden they transfered him there.

Not military. Prison gaurd training. There are issues with being in a setting like that. |
