Update on LCpl Paul G Madden, USMC

26 June 2004: Paul Grady has been in Iraq since mid/end of February 2004. He is stationed at Al Asad airbase some distance west of Baghdad. His duties so far include convoy security and maintenance of water-related equipment. Though he volunteered for a year's tour, the USMC may limit it to seven months per a recent article in the Camp Pendleton weekly newspaper. Paul Grady reads about a book a day, calls when the phone lines are up, and writes infrequently; Daphne writes daily and sends packages frequently to Paul Grady and other Marines in his unit.
