General Casey Christmas Visit to Camp Liberty

As for Jed's Christmas, it was umm, eventful. Everyone was put on alert and working doubled shifts because General Casey was visiting the base. He is the main general over the army, so it was a big deal:

Jed's Christmas evening was even more eventful. Jed asked me not to post details on the blog.  So let's just say you're hangin' out in a Muslim country such as Iraq, and the extremists who live there know Christmas is a big Christian holiday for the US soldiers.  It's a great opportunity to make a point by some. I guess I'll just say that I'm very glad he's safe.
