Publisher Description: Civilian contractors work, and some die, in support of Operation Iraqi Freedom (OIF) and Operation Enduring Freedom (OEF) - Afghanistan. From the processing at a military installation in the United States, to the military air transportation, to the actual job assignment, here are the experiences of one such contractor. Most are there to do a job and to get paid for it. They make good money, but they work for that money under adverse conditions in a combat environment. All the while they are around some very interesting people, good and bad, from all over the world. It is not an adventure, or a vacation. It is a job. |
