Just got back from Rustam... Rusta.. oh I can't even pronounce it anyway

It was a pretty straight forward mission, take a peice of equipment there and pickup one they didn't tell us about. I'm starting to get pictures of various different things in the motorpool and eventually on the road. It takes a bit of work for me to get them ready to upload because of the slow internet but I'm working on it. We've got some formation thing to go to where 32nd is getting their combat patch, we're 32nd TC now so we gotta go. I'm fighting off sleep, I figure if I stay awake I'll fall asleep standing up and won't have to hear any of the crap. Then I'm coming back and crashing for a while. Whenever I wake back up again I'll start on photos. Unless I get real motivated before the cerimony, we'll see I guess. Stay tuned, and thanks for all the prayers, it went without a hitch.

Hey baby! I'm so happy for you that you got to drive and have a SAFE trip. I love you!

I was praying there would be an update on your blog as I was walking early this morning! I'm thankful your mission went well and that you returned safely! I tried to look up Rustam---- in Iraq and didn't get very far because the name isn't complete ... was it close by? Did you go at night or during the day?

We only roll out at night. It took about an hour to get where we were going but our convoy speed was around 30mph.

Jesse, glad you got a chance to drive and it was a safe trip. I was going to say, you finally got a chance to get your feet wet, but that doesn't fit too well over there. Keep up the good work, we're proud of you. I don't know if Diana told you, but Lew's got the whole congregation praying for you every week at church. Keep Safe, Dad Hand

I'm glad to hear that you have your first mission safely behind you and I will continue to pray that the rest go just as well. Have you gotten your full liscense then?

Jesse Pahman said...

Yes, I am now fully licensed. They haven't given me the peice of paper yet but I'll be driving full systems from now on when I go out.

Sabrina said...

Congrats on your full liscense then! I'm still wearing the bracelet I told you about. Praying everyday everytime I am reminded of you and the family. I'll get a snail mail out to you this week.
