Josh the "fighting" is "officially" over over here, but I can tell you this, my M-4 carbine, M-9 pistol, or even my magic Sirupati, aren't worth half as much to me right now as just staying alert and vigilant. Terrorists avoid direct combat, preferring instead to snipe from a safe distance or use explosive devices. A Sirupati, even a magic one, won't do me much good against a bomb detonated in my vicinity, so best any of us can do is keep our eyes peeled and not take anything, no matter how small, for granted.
Reminds me of my advice to one of my younger troops over here on his very first deployment; "Son, there's only three things you got to remember, 1. Pay attention, 2. Pay attention, and 3. Pay attention".
