Kim81 in Ypsilanti, Michigan 44 months ago	kiki78 in Atlanta, Georgia said: No I haven't heard that, I just left 2 months ago, very interesting. I find it very strange that you could have only left 2 months ago and you didn't know what zone you were occupying?!! What company did you work for out there? - Was this comment helpful?

What company did you work for out there? I do know what "zone" I was occupying.I was in the Green Zone, USMI Central, and I was there for 4 years working for KBR.I have never heard of Camp Victory/Liberty being referred to as the Green Zone being that we had to take a 20 minute convoy ride in armored vehicles out into the Red Zone in order to get to Victory, so how Victory could be called the Green Zone is a mystery to me.I'ved emailed some of my old coworkers who are still working in the GREEN ZONE and none of them have heard of Victory being called this either.What company did you work for? - Was this comment helpful?

I was with LSI and now I'll be with KBR. I was statoned at FOB Falcon(red zone) in 2006 while I was in the Army and even then Liberty/BIAP were known as the green zone. The article I pasted above was taken from CNN's website and the Reporter clearly names Liberty/Victory as being in the green zone as well and surely they are more a more credible source than you,sooooo,....ummmm........!!! Have a nice weekend;-) - Was this comment helpful? Yes / No (3) Reply - Report abuse

Ms Sparky in Portland, Oregon 44 months ago	Kim81 in Ypsilanti, Michigan said: I've been stationed at Libert and Diamondback. I'm going back to Liberty and I'll be there around the 1st of Nov. By the way how would we run into each other? I got the idea that you were on this site to preach about the evils of contracting? Or were you just protesting against KBR specifically? KBR specifically. But you know what? You are PERFECT for KBR. So you just scoot right on back over there honey. If KBR is still there when you get there...I'll be surprised. No wonder KBR is in so much trouble! - Was this comment helpful? Yes / No (1) Reply - Report abuse

Nice article Kiki78. Thanks. I didn't see liberty or victory in there. And if I had known BIAP was in the Green Zone I wouldn't have bothered with the damn rhino convoys. Go figure. Silly me. - Was this comment helpful? Yes / No Reply - Report abuse

OOOOhhhh ok, so it was KBR specifically because they are the oooonnnlllyyy contractors who abuse and waste govt. funds!!Well I saw you making negative post on here about KBR constantly and hyping up you're little website, so I pretty much guessed you were on of those people who go on a tirade to "expose" the company they got fired from!lol! Let it go honey,just let it Go;-) - Was this comment helpful? Yes (3) / No (2) Reply - Report abuse
Dwight593 in Houston, Texas 44 months ago	Kim81, I have been at Camp Victory for over 4 years and I've been through BIAP probably 100 times. Camp Victory and BIAP have NEVER been in the Green Zone. I was here when Camp Liberty was established. I have no intention of getting into this argument you have going on. But, you must be confusing the Green Zone with something else. I think this forum serves a valuable service. It provides future employees with "helpful" information. Your information is not factual and therefore not helpful. KiKi and Sparkys information was quit accurate. - Was this comment helpful? Yes (5) / No Reply - Report abuse

millied in Raleigh, North Carolina 44 months ago	No, he is in camp Kandahar. But he is moving in the morning. What I have read about this camp does not sound so good. It is new for KBR because of security reasons they would not even go in there until not to long ago. The military cooked for themselves there. No roads to my understanding and it is rough and mountainous. I have been praying that the camp would change. Taliban like this kind of areas so I have read. - Was this comment helpful?

millied in Raleigh, North Carolina 44 months ago	yes he called this morning and I am suppose to cal him in the morning. He said they would give him a laptop but as of yet they have not. Some of them there have received one but he has not. I really hope his camp changes. If he could stay where he is that would be better to me. But this camp is a go between. - Was this comment helpful? Yes / No Reply - Report abuse

No roads to my understanding and it is rough and mountainous. I have been praying that the camp would change. Taliban like this kind of areas so I have read. My hubby is at Kandahar. He is an electrician. The camp mmmmm....let me say is unique. It is a coalition base and needs desperate work. Mine has been there for 2 weeks and he is getting a little better with learning the area and people. It takes time for it is a total culture shock to get use to. Things are different there than at a regular US bases, but he is trying real hard for all of us. It is a rough base and they have had lots of rocket fire. Now that Ramadan is over it seems like it has let up some. He said that he actually got 8 hours sleep. They past few days that get rocket fire, but not as bad as prior days, but you never know over there. We talk once a day for about 20 minutes. We encourage each other of why he chose to go overseas, due to unemployment so bad in our home surroundings. What will your hubby do there? Maybe he can get together with other electricans that are there. - Was this comment helpful? Yes / No Reply - Report abuse

millied in Raleigh, North Carolina 44 months ago	He does not know why he is there, suppose to find out today. No I do not know much about camp Sharana, except is is in the mountains and it is a lot colder there and that the winters are really rough there as well as the roads if any. It is a new camp for kbr and the service men have been cooking for themselves, you can find that info on the net. My husband is starting out in the food service as a door. I think after 6 months he will be in something else. But at least he has a job at this point. We are thankful for that. - Was this comment helpful? Yes / No Reply - Report abuse

Think on the bright side he will see a white xmas, sounds good to me, im sick of these texas summers!! I bet the scenery is beautiful too! Also if its a new camp i bet there is a better possibility of promotion. - Was this comment helpful? Yes / No Reply - Report abuse
