Settling In

Stephen called today to give me the 4-1-1 on the sitch in Kirkuk. He's apparently living in some sort of detention center/jail. He's got his own room, and there is one bathroom that 9 of them will share. There is another one in a "shower trailer" outside or down the street or something.

He is starting to settle in, and worked a 12.5 hr day today. He expects he will be working a lot, long hours and long days. He said he and his group of 7 will do the work of the departing group of 16. I guess that means he won't be sitting around bored as he feared.

I expect to get a mailing address soon, and I'll pass that along.
