Was idly using lj's search facilities to find users in Iraq (just because I thought their journals would make damn interesting reading at the moment) but (as you might expect) most of the people listing their location as Iraq were just jokers. However, I did turn up the (as far as I can tell, completely genuine) livejournal of a commissioned officer in the US military who's currently out there -
dahunk2003. Fascinating to get a ground level look at what's going on.
Haven't yet decided whether to add him as a friend, but I'll definitely be checking back at his journal over the next few weeks.
