Bottoms up in Baghdad

Good news for at least some of the troops who will be spending Super Bowl Sunday in Iraq. The powers that be have announced that a few will be able to enjoy the big game and a cold one, or two, at the same time. Troops in Iraq are prohibited from consuming alcohol under General Order No. 1, but this year they’re making an exception for the Super Bowl, according to this story in the Stars&Stripes.
Being away from home is tough on GIs, and anything that brings home a little closer is a good thing.
Cheers!
