Some pics from Iraq
 

Hey guys. I'm in Q-West, Iraq right now...finally got here. Here are a couple of pics in case anyone is interested.

The kids love us here. They are all hungry and cold (it's freezing in the winter) and they don't have enough clothes. Everytime we'd stop our convoy (for a roadside bomb or something) they'd all come running up asking for food.

Anyway, here's the pics. Enjoy

we were securing a chopper landing zone

Here's the gunner in my gun truck (i'm the driver), Sergeant Marshall. That's an M60

:thumbsup:
Thanks for checkin in!

Way off topic...what kinds of animals do you see around there? Like wild animals. Just curious

my gun truck crew. Sergeant Major McCormack, Sergeant Marshall, and me. the numbers on the back are Isaiah 54:17 "no weapon formed against me shall prosper"

And lastly some verses inside the door of our scout vehicle. They have a rough job.

Well, we mainly see sheep, goats, camels and wild dogs. That's about it. :)

Any other questions, like do people like us, whats it like, how often do we get attacked?

You said the children love you... how do the adults react to your precense?

If you want me to host the full size pics, then send me a pm and ill pm my addy.

Good to hear your ok homie!
Nice pics.
keep safe.

sup mang. glade your doing alright. i bet its warmer over there then here in IOWA.:mad:

You're giving me flashbacks!!!AAAHHHH!!! I took a lot of pictures too...in fact I have a whole CD full of pictures...I just didn't know how to post em. How are you? Is everything ok? How's the Morale? How long do you have? I told all the people in my shop that if they are tagged to go and they don't want to...I would definately take their place...you guys probably think I am crazy...

nice pics man...keep up the good work out there:yes:

Actually, most of the adults like us a lot more than i would've thought. They're mostly friendly, except for a few rough spots (fallujah, mosul) and they always smile and wave.

I'll write some more when i got time, but right now our Captain has my platoon working 8am to 11pm every day, 7 days a week and I've got to get back to work.

thanks for all the encouragement guys
