Question for Ksniper or anyone else with prior time over in Iraq - hubby landed in Camp Anaconda two days ago for training. His paperwork puts Camp Hammer as his final destination. Can't find much information about Hammer when I google it - what can anyone tell me?

Hi...mine is an electrician also! He's been in Houston since the 19th, so far so good on his medical eval and other tests. When did you find out he was going to Afghanistan? We still don't know. I was thinking he would likely go to Iraq since they need extra electricians to fix the problems there...but maybe not!? This forum has helped me thru these past few days, I hope you will continue to report your hubby's progress!!

Ksniper777 in San Antonio, Texas said: this is a follow up to jay's post concerning Afghanistan it was on the other website but i think is important job information as well. I have a contact at Fluor who has also heard this information.

Reply posted to KBR Salaries, Bonuses and Benefits.
jay in afghanistan in bagram, Afghanistan said: well looks like dyncorp will not be
performing the operations and maintence task for logcap 4. was involved with a discussion
with a sgt. who was told by the aco that fluor will now being doing it for the south also.
reason being dyncorp had cut the wages so low and tried to force the issue of the
economies turmoil on to kbr employees and told them that there is no work to go to in the
states and told the bosnians the same. they laughed at them and said i guess "we will take
our chances with that and see what happens". they were expecting to take at least 80% of
kbr's workforce and they only have 10%. .

Tactically, It appears KBR anticipated the poaching and rolled-back the key staff in
theatre (at the mgmt level) to let the dust settle. Dyn & Flor probably got "the best of
the worst" left in theatre and now KBR appears to be ramping back up with their "A-Team"
in an effort to pick up the pieces when the other two face-plant.

No disrespect meant to the folks still over there .... just what it looks like from this
side.

As my hubby will be working in Management, I am sure he will get updated real quick as to what "Really" is going on.... Until he tells me there is a problem - there is NO problem. Dyn is filling those positions at rapid speed now...

I dont know whats wrong with the kids today.. everything is such a chore.. many are so apathetic.. they question everything... I ask them to take a piece of paper out to take notes and their response is "Do we have to?" yesterday I had a kid ask me.. "what will happen if I don't do my homework?" as if he's checking to see if he would be ok with the consequence..
