My balls seem to have shrunk.
My heart beats more than ever
and i seem to sweat even in the cold of night.
Basra is not what i expected.
It is so fucking hot, and the flies will not let me be.
The barracks at least feel safe
but i think my bottle has gone.
Sailed off down the river with a note inside.
"please excuse this private from active duty, he is scared"
Everyone else just acts cool,
me, i just act the fool.
It is the only way i can cope.
It"s the only thing that gives me hope.
My hands sometimes will not stop shaking.
Dear Mother,
Just arrived and have settled in well..........
i do,and its not a nice place to be...
nice one
