Sick in Iraq

I have now caught a virus or something. I just got it the other day. Now I have a headache that has been lasting for days and a sore throat. I've been drinking alot of water and staying away from soda to hopefully make it pass by quickly. It is the first time I've been sick in over a year. Which is actually the longest stretch I've had without getting sick. I was hoping I could make it through this deployment without getting a cold.

There is a possible IED spotted. So, the area is quarantined till they can get a good look at it in the day time. Hopefully it is just a false alarm.
