OPFOR: What goes around - Comes around

BAGHDAD, Iraq — Members of the Iraqi Army in Besmaya collected a donation for the San Diego, Calif., fire victims Thursday night at the Besmaya Range Complex in a moving ceremony to support Besmaya’s San Diego residents.

Iraqi Army Col. Abbass, the commander of the complex, presented a gift of $1,000 to U.S. Army Col. Darel Maxfield, Besmaya Range Complex officer in charge, Multi-National Security Transition Command Iraq, to send to the fire victims in California.

Okay, I’m touched.

    I’m touched as well. That’s a lot of money for them, and the thought counts even more. I’m a SD resident, wasn’t evac’d (this time …was in the Cedar Fire), but I think I can say “thank you” on behalf of those who’ve lost everything.
