Dear Baby Sister,

Yeah, I know you hate when I call you that. Too bad, you will always be the baby. Life is good but dirty as in dirt everywhere. You don't need to hear all the dirty details but this man's balls are gritty and I'll leave it at that. This pretty much explains Afghanistan to a T. My friend Rack saves my sanity. This is his third tour and he knows his shit. You would like him and I know he would like you. Hint, hint!

Your favorite and only big brother,

Nick

The men watch me around the clock. Getting my hands on a cell phone is a fluke and I still can't believe my luck. I need to send a text and get out of Peter's room quickly.
