As I mentioned in my last post, I was going to that "Garden Spot" of the Middle East. Thinking back a few years, does anyone remember the deployment from Malta to Karachi, Pakistan?
Matter-of-fact, I still have the Hotel Metropole receipt. Karachi was a tourist attraction compared to Turkmenistan. The temperature was 110+ everyday. It was a rough job, but as they say, "someone had to do it".
The interim stop over's were ok, London, and Istanbul, Turkey. Turkey should also be a memory jogger. Remember the one night stands in Tehran, Iran, Ankara, Turkey on our way to Karachi?
We all could probably write a book which would be a best seller. Jack
