Josh is Fighting the Pirates!

Josh has been very busy on the USS Boxer. They are currently in the Gulf of Aden, fighting pirates. Never thought I'd be saying that!

He is able to email, as along as they are not in River City 1 status, which means they are not allowed to communicate off the ship.

Here are a couple of things Josh emailed me regarding the anti-piracy effort that is going on.

"yea the pirate stuff is really exciting, its fun seein us all over the news, i cant wait to tell u about it, the news doesnt really tell much of how everything happend and there not exactly accurate about everthing but of course im not allowed to talk about it on here so ill have to wait to tell u guys about it later."
