Sad news today. Another fellow milblogger has joined the "Ghost battalion" (milblogs that quit blogging when their deployment end). Badger 6 came home the first week of May, 08 and has decided to hang up his camo keyboard.
B-6 has been instrumental in getting the ground truth out about what has been going on in Ramadi - Falluja. He shared the stories of the soldiers of Company A, 321st Engineer, the progress they made and the loses they incurred
All is not lost however, for those avid readers, he will continue to post occasionally here at MilBlogs
Today is his Birthday, so please wish him well, and thank him for his service.
I'm going out of town so have no time to tell you all how much of a loss this is to the milblogging community, Greyhawk may add to this later.
Thank You B6 for making history. Hope to see you around MilBlogs.
