Ramadan is a time of festivities for the Muslims. They fast during the day and at night after the sun goes down they pray and then eat. This lasts around thrity days. Each night to celebrate we would eat at someone's trailer.
Are these Iraqi soldiers you are eating with or are they friends you have met? Do they invite you to join their festivities? When you say, "someone's trailer" is it the local people's houses?
Need a speaker for a meeting? I have a fantastic slide show presentation which show unique things during my two tours in Iraq. If interested give me a call at 325-947-4870 or email at ronnie@wtxs.net for an appointment.
I have two programs one is on the intial invasion of Iraq, it takes you through the war and ends in Baghdad showing you the situtation and some of the intial projects, concerns, and overall situtation during that time period.
The second program focuses on the agricultural sector of Iraq from the producer to the Minister of Agricultural who sets policy for the country.
The program usally runs aproximately 45 minutes, but can be catered to your situtation.
