Using sand from quarries in Kuwait, Navy Seabees stationed in Al Jabor Air Base were building concrete aircraft parking ramps before the start of Operation Iraqi Freedom.   When the quarries were closed temporarily, our stockpiles were exhausted in three days.   The fourth day the following report was issued/: “Kuwait has run out of sand.”                       John Lamb
