My friend and day job colleague Peter Swanson has returned to active duty in response to the Army’s call. Peter writes from Baghdad to report on a sign observed in the American mess hall:
As you enter the dining facility, there are a row of sinks for hand washing. Here is one sign:
No face washing
No foot washing
No spitting in sink
Wash hands onlyPhotography is forbidden, otherwise I would have taken a picture. Interesting how the Army is able to come up with a solution while American higher education is wringing its hands on the wudu issue.
