I just returned from my latest trip to Iraq and all points in the middle east. I was able to visit with my brother for about an hour in Balad and he gave me a disk of pictures he has taken over there. Lord willing, he will be leaving that place next week while I'm hanging out in Reno.

When I left the states, I swung down through Johannesburg, SA and saw this DC-3

Image

While we were there, we picked up these..

Image
Image

Which we carried to Iraq

Image

Followed by these guys that we took to another field the next day

Image

These two pictures were taken at Al Asad Airbase in Iraq.

A bunch more pictures can be found at

There are more airplane pictures and pictures of some vehicles that were torn up by IEDs and such. Most of the rest of the stuff is my brothers pictures.

Rather than try to screw with photobucket, I'll just post the rest on webshots.

It'd be great if we could bring that MiG-23 "The Phoenix" back to the U. S. for a museum display, complete with graffiti! :D
