Iraq 2008, we sleep where we can, when we can.

Iraq 2008, Scout Platoon Shenanigans

Iraq 2008, A warm, hard, solid surface is better than gravel.

and learn from. He was more of a Mentor.
Platoon Sergeant - Sergeant First Class Peluso

Iraq 2008, nothing better than battle drills to keep us on our toes.

Iraq 2008, when the HMMWVs are being occupied, you won't argue sleeping on gravel.
