What unit did you belong to, and where in Iraq where you stationed?
I hope you dont mind me asking you these questions.

I was in Bravo Company, 1st Battalion, 30th Infantry Regiment, 3rd Brigade, 3rd Infantry Division for both of my tours over there. First time was the invasion and I ended in Baghdad. Second time I was in Baqubah for a little over 5 months and then was moved to Ramadi for the last 7 months. Ask all the questions you want, i dont mind as long as they're within reason.

As an aside, normally the flag patch is not worn on the uniform, excepting in contingencies or war scenario's where you'd need to be able to identify yourself as a US troop from a distance.

Thats no longer the case. The flag has become a permanent fixture on the uniform.
