LARAMIE, WYOMING - Three Wyoming National Guardsmen are making music in their free time while deployed to Iraq.

Dustin Scott, Nathan Harvey and Jeremiah Eaton formed the Joe Speed Band and have posted one music video on a new Web site that allows soldiers to upload songs, and lets listeners download them. It's called GI Jams.

Their song "Cowboy Soldiers" is about longing for small comforts while serving in the hot desert. The song was an instant hit on the fledgling site. Scott and Harvey grew up in Laramie, while Eaton is a native of Casper.

The three soldiers said they have many more songs in the works, and they can't wait to return to the U.S. to record with better equipment.
