You may want to send Yoopr a PM and ask him about driving a tanker in Iraq. I'm quite sure he can advise you on whether or, not it would be wise for you to seek employment with KBR...

What I felt and saw during that 4 minutes, made me not scared of death any more, BUT.... I would not throw my life away just because I'm not scared. Your to young to toss it all away. Money and a green card is not worth facing death. Live your life and have fun going it. Now if you were a lot older, no family, and was looking for a way out. I say more power to ya. You lived, been there done that and looking for that last thing to do, but not at your age.

Just my 2 cents, take it for what it's worth.

The term "wise" may not be applicable here. If he wants to do it , more power to him.
