Reporting straight from Baghdad over at GraniteGrok:
My name is Major Kirk Luedeke, and I’m blogging with my fellow Granite Staters, from Forward Operating Base Falcon in Southern Baghdad.
.
This is the first of what I hope will be a regular companion piece to Doug’s and Skip’s terrific blog. The blogosphere continues to expand and explode, and it is a distinct honor that granitegrok.com has asked me to become a contributor to this forum. I hope that you will all come away with a better understanding of what is happening in our little slice of Iraqi paradise when all is said and done.
.
As a U.S. Army brigade Public Affairs Officer, I will state up front and for the record that the content of this blog will consist of facts, observations and personal opinions based on firsthand experiences here. I am in no way speaking for the Army or the U.S. government. I welcome anyone who has questions or wants to engage in additional discourse to contact me via email at kirkaluedeke@yahoo.com.
The sad facts of the modern world are that we cannot rely on the MSM to report the truth - fortunately, there are bloggers like Major Luedeke who will tell us what is really going on. We here at Blogs for Victory welcome Major Luedeke to the blogosphere.

Thanks for the link, Mark–I’ll be hitting this blog often when I return from my cruise. I like getting honest prospectives from “boots on the ground,” except when they have an agenda, as in the generals who are holdovers from the Don Vito Clintonleone regime…

FOB Falcon gets rocketed and mortared on almost a daily basis. I wondered if that has slowed down. Why not ask MAJ Luedke?

I thought the military was cracking down on members of the military blogging and emailing out info. I am sure it is truthful stuff, but I wonder what the brass will let out and what they won’t?
