Journal Entry
Meetings all morning. Combined Staff meeting. Gave a class to Salim and Rafi in the afternoon about how to read Afghan intelligence reports, just what they mean and how to divine information from them.

In the staff meeting SSgt Tom Peter brought up that Unity [a contracting company] is having trouble servicing Afghan port-a-johns. They keep sucking up rocks and it ruins there pumps. Apparently some guys here are from the hinterland and wiping your ass with rocks is the thing to do.
