I know the Russians build some good aircraft but there does seem to be a lot of pics with them going splatskie.

I like the Donkey cart shot Les, although I would have thought power plant info for APC's was still classified.

Sometimes Lanc, there are going to be a couple of reposts that slip through the cracks...

Good stuff, Les. Though I am not too keen on the GIs getting hit, I understand that it happens.

To me, those pics represent the valor in which these men perform their duties, day in and day out... The guy gave his life trying to save a brother.... To me, thats bravery at its finest...

Agreed, it illustrates that well. But you and I both know it sucks to watch a brother fall.

Nice pics, but instead of burning those guns im sure they could give one to me with some ammo for target shooting in the garden....

It was sad to see those pictures of the soldiers being shot, les, but it made me glad that I have never had to witness it personally or watch it happen to someone I knew. A damn fine man, and soldier, he was to risk his life for his brother - may he rest in peace.

And on that note, let's make sure the enemy pays in 10s and 100s for that one man!

Some good pics there. Never good to see a couple of the good guys get it, but I meant the quality of the pics overall.
I fully agree that the fella attempting to save his buddy is a hero though. His memorial should reflect nothing less IMO.

Agreed, NS! Hey Les, that guy next to you on the rail in the shot of the ship looks like another guy your size. You guys must have had a hell of a time with those hatches!

I remember flying in C-130s through some big storms, but could never deal with the oceans. I get seasick, but not airsick, go figure. So it was an obvious choice when deciding between the Navy and the AF. With a list that heavy, I would have been in full "vector spew" mode.

The Air Force pays more too right?
