Thanks to Bill Roggio, for his generous guidance through the entire embed process.

Thanks to the Marines and soldiers who took care of me and gave me access. Specifically, the guys at the Fallujah Police Transition Team, Military Transition Team 6 (as well as the teams at the FOBs), 1-2-4 Civil Affairs Group and Team Gator. Additional thanks to all of the helpful PAOs, including MAJ Pool, SSG Buckley, CAPT Duncan, 1LT King and 1LT Edwards.

Thanks to Mark Tapscott at the Examiner for accreditation with his fine paper.

Thanks to Val Prieto for his emergency editing help.

Thanks to Glenn Reynolds, Michelle Malkin, Allah at Hot Air, Dean Esmay, Patterico, the Mr. & Mrs. @ Mudville Gazette, Bill Quick, Donnah, Jules Crittenden, the guys at Blackfive, Jeff Goldstein and all of the other numerous blogs that linked my work.

Thanks to Mary Katharine Ham and Bryan at Hot Air for video editing help.

Thanks to Michael Yon & Michael Fumento for answering my questions, as well as setting standards for excellent work.

And last but not least, thanks to all who donated. I sincerely needed and appreciate the support.

It gives me a warm and fuzzy that so many were behind your reporting. We all needed your reporting and we all helped in what ever manner we could.
I want to thank you again for going over there and thank those that helped you put your words and video on the web for the rest of us to see.
I only wish you were a full time journalist and that we could send you off again... In many ways though, your citizen reporting means more to me than any professional journalist.
I never lost fact of the guy that rode the trains and went to work 8/5, was willing to put his life on the line to tell me what was going on. I can only assume that the men and women in theatre thought the same when the were confronted with the likes of you...(hey, tone down those big baby blues)!!!
A big shout out to those men and women that kept you safe and were willing to go on camera to tell ME what is going on over there. Thank you so much...

Thanks Babs. Perhaps I'll go back, circumstances permitting.
