In 2014 I was lucky enough to get picked to go to Dubai, UAE and perform customs inspections on military equipment being shipped back to the United States as apart of the retrograde from Afghanistan. Since there were only six of us that were picked we took full advantage of the location we were in; we were allowed to be tourists when we weren’t working so we saw as much as we could while we were there. I remember this trip the most because the port was shutdown so we all go to go down to the Burj. It was pretty exciting being in the worlds tallest building we took in the sites, hit the mall and the beach still one of the best times I can remember.
