Introduction

This is a new blog for me. An attempt to be informal, honest and to keep my parents informed – a poor substitute for the sunset, sun-downer talks we can have when I’m at home.

I recently re-deployed with the African Union/United Nations Joint Peace Keeping Mission in Darfur, and posts will largely be my reflections on the situation. You might be shocked to discover a lot of them focus on the international response to the conflict and not the actual conflict, but that’s what I’m thinking about for now.
