Forward Operating Base LMC

was turned over to the Iraqis in a ceremony on March 31, 2009. I came across the link this morning and it took me down memory lane for a few minutes. Rustamiyah is sandwiched between the city dump and a sewage treatment plant which guaranteed the smell was fragrant, to say the least. I will not miss it nor will I sign up for whatever trip is hawked 25 years from now for the old vets to visit the battlefields.

Yet not a single one of us would blame you if you did.

I'll say it again: Welcome home.
