    Back at the base its time to relax, and get ready to head home after a month of patrols in the field. This time has been like a vacation from the daily lives of the reservists who come from all over the country. Here truck drivers and lawyers, plumbers and bank managers are equal, if only for a moment. Views[258] Olives, one of the 4 types of canned food on this trip is much appreciated. The pickled fruit can be snacked on the go and makes it impossible to forget that you are in the Middle East. Views[447] If you can't sleep with your gun under your pillow you must use your gun as a pillow. Resting time is precious. Soldiers get sleep whenever and wherever they can. Views[1080] Riding the hilly landscape at dusk, the surveillance antennas feel like masts of a ship, sailing in the desert sea. Views[311] Stopping at a vantage point overlooking the border. From here starts a 7 day patrol along the seam of Asia and Africa . Views[249]
