Iraq postcard
Received this postcard from Iraq this Memorial Day weekend. It reads, in part,:
"...it is miserably hot. People all across Iraq are lucky to get 4-5 hours of electricity per day! The level of violence is creeping up here as more and more troops leave."
BTW, Does anyone know the make and model of that blue truck?

It's a Russian GAZ-69.
Here is the same photo:

Reads "A U.S. soldier motions a GAZ-69-offroad vehicle forward at a traffic control point outside of Hussniya, Iraq, July 23, 2007."
Is from the US Government.
@Viva: Thanks!
Try to identify the car I post tomorrow.
