The Army gives each soldier that comes to Iraq or Afghanistan 15 days off during our 15 month deployments. I spent my time away from Iraq not shaving and just enjoying the small things in life. I was in Atlanta, GA, St. Lucia, and Athens, GA.

Upon landing in Atlanta I was all smiles and I am sure those around me were wondering what was wrong with me.  I mean I saw girls, civilian clothes, real cars, cell phones, no weapons, and it was not 100 outside.  It was pretty cool to be home, finally.  Now it was time to get started on making the most of my 15 days away from the war.
