PS This letter thing ain't too bad I don't think I'll have a proble to need to Keep ust 26th, 1990
This place is the twilight zone! We didn't step out of a plane into Saudi We stepped out into hell! In hell there ain't no fire and brimstone, there's sun, dust and flies Remember the Amityville horror? The one with all the flies - that's al pile And the heat, it presses so hard against you, you feel claustrophobic in the wide open desert You best say your prayers girl, 'cause if you don't, when you croak, you going to find yourself in Saudi Arabia
The fan belts, that's e call the Saudis, are building this tent city for us These tents are called Hajs, they use these things for the pilgri out the sun, I wouldn't use 'es are cheap When a wind blows up, the tents bloay I guess it's the fan belts way of telling us to hurry the hell up and get the job done
There's a lot of mistrust between the Saudi's and us Because of the terrorist threat, they're only peruess they think we're going to like corrupt theirIyou the evil eye, lets you know that they don't like us being here, but they're also s I like about those fuckers is this rule they have with each other When they're standing up the hajs, and they go about haround, if one of thee, they switch spots, you know, the spotter becoer becomes the spotter, pretty clever if you ask me I think the army should take note, if officers fuck up, they should switch spots with some of us NCOs, that'll learn their asses
Other then that, it's typical aryour nuts You always said racing to the red light You pegged army life Rumors run wild, most of them so buku crazy even a piss on like ht a new one circulates that tonight's the night the Iraqis cross the border
