Just a quick check in and hello from Syria. All is well, as I can't post anything out here in relation to whats going on or what we are doing this is more of a hello and everything is ok.
We've been out here since the start of April and will be here until October. It's just another 6 months away from home, this being my 3rd deployment.
This week we had a thunder storm hit the AO and it was something I haven't seen before as I'm presuming was a mixture of high winds picking up the dust and the sun then shining through, the entire area was engulfed in an orange tint. This lasted a couple of hours while lightning and thunder hit us.
This was a great photo captured while we were out on patrol, lightning shot across the strange tinted sky.
