Boy, I am glad that these guys are getting recognized for their service in Iraq.  Most of our supply convoys that supplied the sites I operated at, were done by Armor Group with these Fijian security contractors running the gun tubs.  Hell, AG even transported me to a couple of my sites over there.  

     The other thing I wanted to say about the Fijians is that they are the nicest, coolest guys.  I am thankful for their contribution in this war and they have represented their country well.  

     On a side note, my fondest memory of Fijians in Iraq, were them singing every night at the camps I was at.  It was like they were singing the gospel or something and rejoicing that they lived that day.  -Head Jundi
