Winning hearts and minds
From Stars and Stripes:
Man, if I were an Iraqi sweltering with no AC... All I can say is that I'd wish I had a pool too ...
Taking over one of Saddam's officers club for ourselves... Is there any wonder some Iraqis might think of us as an occupying power?
Spc. Joshua Breig of the 203rd Enginineer Battalion goes headfirst into the pool at Freedom Rest, a rest and recuperation hotel opened Saturday by the 1st Armored Division Task Force for its soldiers. The facility was once an officers club for Saddam Hussein's Republican Guard.
