As The Sparks Fly Upward

Time keeps on slipping (slipping, slipping) into the future…

  • You have reached a 2008 blog…

    ...about the day-to-day adventures of MAJ Erik Rupard, working as a physician in a Troop Medical Clinic in Iraq, during 2008. It is presented as a diary, in chronological order, but feel free to start anywhere.

    I'd like to express my gratitude and appreciation to the fine soldiers of the 581st ASMC who kept me alive, happy, and well-fed throughout my time in Al Asad.

    If you are a former or current 581st member and you want to reach out to me or any of the others, head on over to Facebook, and search for Erik Rupard. Talk with you soon!

Hello!

Posted by Erik Rupard on 15th November 2008

You have reached the preserved-in-amber version of a blog I kept while serving as a military doctor in Iraq between March and September of 2008. If you are new to my site, the best place to start is on page one (the bold blue appearance of this sentence is a clue that you are supposed to click on it), and then just use the arrows in the upper right corner (or the calendar at lower left) to work your way chronologically through the blog entries.

For those who are interested, I am now back in Georgia, working at Eisenhower Army Medical Center on Fort Gordon, GA, and life is very very good. Thanks to all who read, wrote, or contributed in any way to this web site, and especially to those who supported me with prayers, packages, and letters.
