When you departed what were the conditions? How's the weather throughout the year? What ideas would you advise someone to take with them if they were deploying there? Hello Mike,

I’ve found the information reference to the billeting and assorted things on the FOB interesting is there anything else you can add. When you departed what were the conditions? How’s the weather throughout the year? What ideas would you advise someone to take with them if they were deploying there?

Hope the living conditions have improved and stay safe. Mike – I spent a year at that PRT in 04 – 05 when it was just starting to get set up. Hope the living conditions have improved and stay safe.

My son, SPC Aaron Walth, is there as part of the PRT. He has only been there a month. I am keeping tabs on him on Facebook. It is nice to see some other faces serving there and maybe hear some other info that my son may not tell us. If you run into a tall thin "kid" (looks young-he's 24) say "hey". Thanks for serving. Am praying for all to go well there. Mike are you still in Jalalabad? My son, SPC Aaron Walth, is there as part of the PRT. He has only been there a month. I am keeping tabs on him on Facebook.

It is very descriptive and with the pictures it becomes very real. Your blog came to my attention recently when you wrote about FOB Finley-Shields. Andrew Shields is my son for which the FOB was named after. Thank you for your service... We pray for your safe return to your family. Good luck and God Speed... Jon Shields Mike,
