Be it ever so humble, there's no place like home

U.S. Army Pfc. Stephen Martin cleans his weapon inside a small shelter at an observation post near Combat Outpost Munoz in Paktika province, Afghanistan, Nov. 15, 2009. Martin is assigned to Company B, 3rd Battalion, 509th Infantry Regiment. U.S. Army photo by Staff Sgt. Andrew Smith.

Saw this photo at Blackfive and had to share.

Which reminds me, Soldiers' Angels has about 1500 service members awaiting adoption and when you're out in a place like this, a couple of care packages can go a long way. Of course, the internet access is a bit sketchy and you may never hear back from "your" Soldier but you can be sure that what you do will be very much appreciated.

Happy Thanksgiving!
