Desert Flier

Greetings! Welcome to my Desert Blog..................I am deploying to Iraq and will be posting my musings and thoughts as well as lots of pictures (click the link above the photo). This is my first blog, and will be "under construction" until I get a good feel for how I want it to look.......so check back often and leave feedback!

I am a trauma and critical care nurse in the Navy currently stationed in Portsmouth, Virginia. However, I have been attached to a Marine Unit since January 19th, and have almost completed my field and didactic training before deploying to Al Asad, Iraq. My job will be to fly critically injured patients from a forward airbase back to a higher level of care either in Baghdad (Army Hospital) or Balad (Air Force Hospital).

Hey! This is very cool! When you get some time, can you set one up for me? By the way, what the heck is a Blog? Such a ugly word.
