Does anyone have a picture of the messages scrawled on bombs?

Posted on 10/12/2001 6:54:53 PM PDT by gopgen

Does anyone out there have a picture of the messages our troops are chalking on the missiles we've been firing? I've seen a bomb with "I Love NY" chalked on it, but have heard there are much more provocative ones, including (not kidding:) "THIS ONE IS PORK CHOP FLAVORED." Andrew Sullivan's site had a rather snobby criticism about something like this, with a link, but the link doesn't take you to a picture of a bomb OR a message, and Sullivan didn't reveal what it said.

If you have any of the pictures, or anything in this vein, please post them. Thanks!

There's a story below about gay Brits complaining about a homophobic remark.

An early pic I saw (don't remember where) was a tribute to Flight 93. Words to the effect "This is for Flight 93".

Wonder how long before the Air Force names one of their large transport planes
"Spirit of Flight 93"?

(My memory may be shot, but I think the transport that landed our crew from the
recon/Chinese fighter event was emblazoned with something like "Spirit of .....")

Thanks for the post, I needed it. I must admit, I have this incredible thirst for blood right now. I want to see our enemies dead by the thousands upon thousands. I want every terrorist org and sponsoring state to fear their nations survival.
