Broken Sunglasses

Posted by Dale @ 3:35 pm Baghdad Time in Deployment, FOB Life

Finally, after 8 months, I succeeded in breaking a pair of my sunglasses. I have an uncanny ability to break and lose sunglasses. When we lived in Wisconsin, I actually backed over a pair of Ray-Bans with my Ford F-150 pickup truck. I think Mugs is impressed with this ability in me! While trying to fly to Speicher last week, I had changed to the clear lens since the flight was scheduled for the evening. I placed the dark lens in the protective case on the front of my body armor. The next morning, I pulled the dark lens out of the protective case and discovered that I had somehow broken them right down the middle.

The nameplate in the picture is made from local marble. Many of the rocks in this area are marble. Sarah had this nameplate made for me from one of the rocks picked up on the FOB.
