I’ll post some of mine on sunday… it’s late and I have to be back on the ship by 0700 tomorrow

Here is a video of another unit 3rd Battalion 1st Marines, my unit 1st Battalion 8th Marines was also a part of this operation as well as two other Marine Battalions.

It was called the second battle of Fallujah. And took place at the end of 2004.

that a surprisingly good video. It reminded me of really how different Afghanistan is from Iraq.

and Pitman; You are an idiot.If you’re going to dump a bunch of pictures in a thread at least have a cohesive argument and don’t just grunt like a caveman then quote a Spiderman. Adults are talking here.

My favorite jet of all time, SR71 Blackbird.

Slightly offtopic but I always loved these pics I took when we pulled into Hong Kong for a port visit
I took this riding the liberty boat to the pier in Victoria Bay because the Carrier had to anchor out in the bay

I did a little editing with these pics laying in my rack on the ship one night.

Needs more f-18 pics…

Some day I will visit;

I think we need a thread to share our own personal military pictures. lol

This! We should all get together for a lunch or something.

I like that idea!

At the very least i guess most of us will be at the OC meet :lol
