School Daze
I wanted to show all of you some more positive things that are happening here in Iraq.
The following photos show the current state of a lot of the schools located in the urban areas of the country. The picture below is a school located not to far from our base headquarters. As you can see, it is a very basic "mud hut" with a thatch roof.
This is a closer photo of the "school house"...
...and these next two are of the actual class rooms inside of the building.
Now for the good stuff. This is project funded by you, the American Taxpayer, to build new schools where they are most needed...
...in order to give these children a better environment in which to learn.
I know it sounds idealsitic, but I want to believe that our efforts will give these beautiful, Iraqi children the tools they need...
...to build a a brighter future for their children...
...because little kids shouldn't have to worry about stuff like this.
Call me a dreamer...
