These pictures are of the work I do in Iraq. I'm in the USAF and I am a bomb technician. The pictures are just a small sample of what my coworkers and I do regularly. It only makes things harder on the terrorists by making less ordnance for them to pick up. We're far from getting it all though, just too much laying around.

I wish because that could make more votes for BUSH! These are just projectiles filled with explosives. The top two pictures are of US weapons and some foreign stuff. The second is of some Iraqi, Soviet, Chinese, and Yugoslav ordnance. The bottom two were also a coalition operation with Italy and the USAF. We've got ourselves a little 50 count humidor with some cigars. Maybe next picture post will be us smoking infront of a wall with saddam on it.

pablo ... the 'Weapons of Mass Destruction' that are so talked about, are classified as Nuclear, Biological, and Chemical (NBC) Weapons ...

... and what you see in these picture are just the conventional bombs that most counties have have access to, and can get plenty of ...

I think that Pablo's comment was tongue in cheek.

Slim must be the smartest man on the planet. I bet all he does is read books and smoke cigars and stuff, and hangs out in coffee shops discussing really imortant topics that I don't know anything about.

XJ,

What a cool line of work... don't know how long you been in EOD... but when we were stationed at the Jab in 96 we got to go out with some of the EOD guy's there what a blast!!!... they were busy as hell and were still busy as hell in 2002 when I was back there again... I'm sure you guys are elbows and a$$holes there in Iraq also....

God Bless!!! and Thanks!!!!

usahog, I don't know what you're talking about you know as well as I Saddam followed ALL rules and regulations put forth by the UN and NATO. Blah!

Thanks for all the support my fellow brothers it's comforting to hear you guys care. Unlike some politician that's running for pres. that pretends to care. Grr I'll be in for his whole term if he gets elected. Had to get that out.

I have contacted smitty. I think it would be hard to build any kind of 'dor here cedar isn't readily available. If you guys have any tips on a some sort of rigged humidor I'd be really grateful.
