Hello all. It's Moose here and I wanted to let you all know that I'm fine and doing well here in Iraq. Not much dive ops here, but I'm working on it!

I do have a blog with information on it here...

http://www.megageek....log/Mob2008.nsf

SO check it out and drop me a note.

I hope all is well with everyone and I'll be home and diving with you all soon enough.

Ah, I remember being a "short-timer", and counting it down! Keep your head low for a little while longer, Moose, and know that your sacrifices do not go unnoticed! You'll be back, diving with friends, before you know it.

Moose, seriously - keep your head down, and your powder dry

Great to hear from you, Moose. That video was hysterical...good to see that your sense of humor is still up to snuff.

Best wishes for a safe return.
