First E-Mail From Afghanistan
***I want to make it clear that I asked the e-mailer what I could publish and what I could not before posting his e-mail.***
If you are real about the comment, yeah, I've been reading your blog since the "MV" post. I am a private security contractor in Kabul Afghanistan. Been here since Nov. 2005. My guess would be the Military all the private laptops would come up as a local IP if they use the Morale computers it would have a DoD IP.
Anyway I enjoy the blog. Not sure what's true or not, but I like the few minutes of escape it provides, which is enough for me.
A little about my job: I am the Deputy Project Manager for a British Company. (I'm American) We provide certain Non-Government Organizations (NGO's) with body guard services. After keeping people with inflated egos alive (sometimes despite their own attempts to help). I surf the web and usually read your site at least once a day. I must admit I have only dealt with a few celebrities. If they in anyway represent the clients you have, I am sorry.
Like the stories, like the effort. Thanks
If you want more information just ask.

Sending kudos from Kuwait...been a reader for about a year now. Stay Safe Trigger.
ReplyDeleteHhhhmmm, that's skirting the lines on OPSEC. Little pieces make big pictures - not that ET wouldn't make for a really interesting big picture. Hope ET doesn't disclose the IP addresses ...
ReplyDeleteStay safe Triggerpro. I know how nasty it can get down there. Keep your head down and well, sometimes we don't WANT you to save the celebrity. ;)
Stay safe TRIGGERPRO.
ReplyDeleteI guess we'll never get the site where it was "discovered that this blog is the 3rd most popular website in Afghanistan". A new low for this site. Using and manipulating people's feelings regarding our overseas armed forces to try & bring up your numbers is reprehensible.
ReplyDeleteBitch please.
ReplyDeletehedda... you are the only one mentioning the armed forces. doubtful most people feel overwhelming patriotism towards bodyguards.
ReplyDeleteas an aside to triggerpro: this is no negativity toward you; i certainly wish you no ill will. but you were not drafted and chose to go in harms way for a fat paycheck (i have friends doing similar work in iraq). best of luck staying out of trouble.
please, this guy could go home any time he pleases. and although i don't want him to be blown to bits by a bomb wrapped in a plastic bag on the curb..... um, yeah, i hope he doesn't die a grisely death, but who cares, he can pack up and go home. he doesn't deserve our sympathy or attention, thus i'm going to stop typing.
