The adventure begins when Batman and Thomas come along with me on a trip to Afghanistan. Thomas loves his new digs and Batman swings around the place to check it out. The squad bay at Camp Pendleton California, Edson Range, makes for an interesting night. We pulled in for a night before we headed out to 29 Palms. It was cool to stay at Edson Range again, the last time I was here was in 2000 while I was in boot camp. The next stop for Batman & Thomas is the K-span at 29 Palms.
The space isn't quite as luxurious as the racks at Edson Range, but it sure beats sleeping out in the cold. A K-span is basically a modern quansit hut, like in "Heartbreak Ridge" so a tin can on its side and buried halfway in the sand. We slept on cots and lived out of our sea bags. Thats it from the front with Batman & Thomas stay tuned for more adventures.
