Well its certainly never "good to go" in that country, but unless the news outlets are completely ignoring the situation (admittedly a distinct possibility)... its not nearly as bad as the true war years.
Ie; all of the logistics have long been in place to ensure the smooth arrival of whatever kind of contracting work his brother does... one of my closest cousins has spent 2+ years there as an airplane mechanic, and while he's in no hurry to go back he admits that they are catered to in every way possible.
Far more than our warriors, that's for sure.
