Jacket Jeep in Iraq
Jacket Jeep in Iraq

Tracey King, Mgt 02, was shocked to see an Internet photo of her old SUV, her Alpha Delta Pi and Georgia Tech decals on the rear window, detained at an Army checkpoint in western Iraq. King, now a doctoral student in the College of Management, said she last saw her badly wrecked 1994 Jeep Cherokee in 2001 when it was being towed away. "It was totaled," she said. The photo was taken by Mack Bryan, Mgt 03, who served a five-month tour of duty with the Army’s 82nd Airborne Div. in Iraq. He posted it on the Hive message board. "I thought it was a fake photo," King said. "I got about 20 e-mails in an hour from people who recognized it."
