Attack on Balad

I just heard on the news that there had been a mortar attack on a base in Balad, two killed and six wounded. Four of the wounded were returned to duty already. My friends are all stationed in Balad, so I'll be keeping my ears wide open for news. And as soon as we get to a decent hour I'll be calling their families.

Update: one of them responds, "Which attack?" Maybe I remembered wrong which base they were at?

Update Update: I guess there have been a couple of attacks lately, but they are all alright. Whew!
