“It was then I noticed the most terrifying item in the entire document. It was number four from the top, under the ‘Items To Be Worn’ section. I looked again, but there was no mistake. ‘Underwear, 1 pair,’ it said. Yes – I was being sent to war, in one of the hottest countries on earth, for weeks if not months, and I was expected to take one pair of underwear with me. For a moment I feel pity for the unlucky garment that would be chosen to accompany me to Iraq. By the time we reached Baghdad, I concluded, it would be a biological weapon in its own right.”
–From Chris Ayres, “War Reporting for Cowards” (2005).
