I really enjoy your photo posts.

That first photo of the NA guys on one of our ships is priceless. They have been transported from the 13th to the 21st century and have to be stunned by what they see.

The reports on the radio this morning said the poshness of Omar's house has caused quite a stir in Kandahar. Apparently the people are not real pleased that the Mullah was spending their moolah on living luxuriously while they lived like rats.

I see continued references to the "single-point system" of food distribution. Do you know what this system is and why is it causing such chaos?

It is difficult to comprehend that Walker never realized the truth ,and the luck, of being born 'a red blooded American...'

In their efforts to be politically correct, so many others tend to misplace ,abuse , and twist the priorities of the freedoms given them..

God Bless America.

Great post, DG. Did you notice in Pic #3 that Marine is holding a SHOTGUN? I wonder what kind of slugs he's got loaded in it?
