...um, "Umm Osar"?

Tully Mars · 07-18-2009, 07:15 AM

I can't find that on my map. I see a town in the south call Umm Qasr. Is that where you're looking? All these Iraqi towns seem to have at least 3 spellings. The town I'm in has two that I found.

Either way I'm not there.

Shell · 07-18-2009, 11:36 AM

yes...i just butchered the spelling. I was using this map and, yes, it's Umm Qasr
...sorry...wasn't paying close attention apparently:
