I was in al-Jubail in the warehouses waiting for our Bradleys to arrive from Bremerhaven. At about 2 am (local) my LT shook me awake and said to get in MOPP4. While I was getting onto the nasty useless suit, my troops kept asking me what was happening (as if someone came to me in my dreams and briefed me). I answered that someone had probably attacked someone. (I'll admit I was a little angry that something was happening and I was miles from the front). We all went back to sleep in MOPP4.
