C-SPAN Video
It is quite lengthy but this video on C-SPAN focuses on the mission of Tim’s unit while in Iraq. I was struck by a few things: 1) It really is brown there. I think these guys will be overzealous to come home to a ‘Field of Green’. 2) I was interested to finally get a visual of their surroundings and where they would hang out. I stopped asking Tim for pictures a long time ago. Nothing like getting it in the end! 3) Their pride is so evident when they describe their mission.
FYI, the UH-60 aircraft is a Black Hawk (two words).
