Heads Up, all DUers sending care packages to Michaels unit

[Mari333]

I am pleased to announce that Michael's Unit at Abu Ghraib is being MOVED out of there.
They are being moved south, to a safer place, all of them, to a prison that is much smaller in the south of the country, where there are NO mortar attacks, etc, and the area is safer for them.
Michael wrote me and requested by email to please not send any more mail to him or the rest of the unit at the address I gave to some of you.
He is fine, and is glad to get out of there, finallly.
So dont send any more packages of food, etc.
In the meantime, thank you for doing so, with all my heart.
I will keep you posted as to his troop movements.
Evidently Abu Ghraib is being given back to the Iraqi Coalition Authority etc as Michael wrote, and all American Troops (so he says) will leave the prison.
((hugs)) to all of you who have been sending packages.

1. Oh No Mari

I have a huge package I just put together can you let me know where I should send it now?
Happy to hear Michael's Unit is being moved and that he's fine that's news I like reading first thing in the morning! I say we give all of Iraq back so Michael and his Unit can get the hell out of there! I know you agree with me on that one ((hugs))
back to you & your mate.

A Shout Out for Michael & his Unit to Stay Safe!

9. as an aside

Michael emailed me and told me this:
Rumsfield landed in a presidential helicopter, and had 10 gunships stationed on Abu Ghraib to protect his ass, and was taken in to the prison in a fancy armoured vehicle , and all the grunts there pretty much called him a "P*ssy" (which is grunt talk for wimp)
They went into the Internet Cafe there and silently protested his visit.
Michael said he never saw so many people in that cafe as he did that day.
Oh,, and by the way. The prisoners are all getting air conditioning.
Check your property taxes this year. You will be paying for all of the mistakes over there.
The biggest mistake, of course, the fact we even went over there in the first place.

12. That is very good news, Mari

I'll be in touch (with one of you) re: new address, info for names of others in the unit, etc.

PLEASE tell him that reading his p****y comments, and the corresponding silent protest made my day!

You raised a good one... :hug:
