NASA's third mission this year to an undersea laboratory off the Florida coast begins when four astronauts splash down Sept. 16.
Veteran space flyer astronaut Sandra H. Magnus will lead the crew on a seven-day undersea mission Sept. 16 - 22 onboard the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's (NOAA) Aquarius underwater laboratory. Army Lt. Col. Timothy L. Kopra, Army Col. Timothy J. Creamer and Air Force Maj. Robert L. Behnken round out the astronaut crew. Roger Garcia and Larry Ward of the University of North Carolina at Wilmington will provide engineering support inside the habitat. All four astronauts are training for possible assignment to missions to the International Space Station.

Johnny "Mike" Spann was the first American killed in combat after 9/11. He was attacked by Taliban prisoners during an uprising at the Qala-e-Jangi fortress near Mazar-e-Sharif on 25 November 2001. My team and I recently visited the site where Mike died and hundreds of Taliban prisoners were subsequently killed. We felt a sense of awe and respect for the dead as we reflected upon what happened there. The Afghan government has since erected a memorial to Mike right where the unfortunate event unfolded (see photo). It is a quiet, lonely place. |

About to finish my second month in Kabul. It’s almost long enough where extraordinary sights start to look ordinary. For instance, have you ever seen a family of five on a motorcycle, with the wife in a blue burqa? (No helmets of course.) Or stopping your vehicle on a four-lane thoroughfare in a nation’s capitol to let a herd of goats pass. Or to see one of those goats in a “modern” army kitchen being butchered on a tree stump with a hatchet (see attached photo). Each day brings something new for the senses. |

It’s been a month and a day since leaving Rhode Island. After spending a couple weeks at Ft. Benning, Georgia, I made it to Kabul on June 17th. After four years talking and teaching about the Global War on Terror to ROTC cadets, I’m now in a position to experience it first hand.

From The Providence Journal 5/31/06:
"SOUTH KINGSTOWN -- If it needs some helpful hints on how to deal with his yearlong assignment to Afghanistan, Lt. Col. Paul C. Krajeski's family can turn to a book that's sure to find a spot on the family coffee table.
It's titled: Household Baggage: The Moving Life of a Soldier's Wife.
Household Baggage contains 54 essays -- many humorous, some emotion-filled -- all written by one soldier's wife: Marna Krajeski, Paul Krajeski's wife."
Full story here.
Marna's website is at http://www.householdbaggage.com/ |
