The PO's trusty vehicles, Lion and Bunny, were out practically the whole day. They left early to Camp Northern Light to pick up some material and Suomi-food. Then they went to Camp Marmul to pick up the soldiers who were returning from leave. When it was time for them to return to Aibak, one of the tyres couldn't take the weight of all the passengers, luggage and goods, and went flat, just 15 kilometres before Aibak. Changing to the spare tyre takes only about 20 minutes, and Lion and Bunny were soon home again.
I started my day by working out in the gym for almost two hours. Then I finalised a report on our latest patrol and made some plans for the future. The PAO (Public Affairs Officer) arrived here today and brought some interesting news. The Finnish television channel MTV3 is going to make a program about Finnish peace-keepers, called "Rauhanturvaajat". The plan is that they will be filming here in Aibak, too. But that will happen long after I'm gone.

The towel rack in the Main Building's bathroom looks angry.
