"Make that two in Iraq."

On Thursday, I shared the news that my sister Becca (Lieutenant in the Air Force) is being deployed overseas to Kabul, Afganistan in early November. Today, however, I recieved an update to that... and there's a change in plans. Her deployment has been moved up by two weeks, and she will instead be sent over to an Air Base in war-torn Iraq.

So, now there will be two Baas siblings serving in Iraq. Ben with the Marines patroling the Syrian border, and Becca coordinating officials and dignitaries at an Air Base elsewhere in the country. Both locations are in/near combat "Hot Zones".
