            <title>Another Castle Denizen on his way to Iraq</title>
            <description><![CDATA[Castle Blogson Sergeant B, of the sometimes fitfully-updated The Gun Line, has a good excuse for his lack of updating his blog.&nbsp; He's been busy.&nbsp; The former Marine, antsy watching his brothers-in-arms fight a war, buckled down, lost some weight, got in shape, and enlisted in the Washington Army National Guard - expressly because he knew they were going to deploy - and at the same time, he could help when the state he lives in needed help, not just when the Federal government answered a request for assistance.&nbsp; All the classic reasons for the citizen wanting to be a part-time soldier.&nbsp; As the song says... &quot;When we were needed, we were there.&quot;

And now he and his&nbsp;unit, Bravo Company, 1st Battalion, 161st Infantry, of the Washington Army National Guard's 81st Brigade Combat Team (Heavy) are&nbsp;in the midst of deployment training.&nbsp; The Castle has another pair of boots training to soon be on the ground in the GWOT.

BTW - that's *Sergeant* B, never &quot;Sgt. B&quot; - that would be a Castle Style violation.&nbsp; Click the [Read More] button for the rest of the story.]]></description>

                <![CDATA[Sergeant B has *always* hated the abbreviated form - as he told me in no uncertain terms several times.<br />
<br />
He wants to be Sergeant B, not Sgt. B.<br />

That's all!]]>
