Help me out here Army folks. My Dad was 25th Infantry Division in Vietnam and that patch looks exactly the same as his (minus colors).

Sorry, don't know Army unit's that well; U.S.M.C. here. ;)

Caption threads must have a funny or stupid image.

This one does not need a caption.

This soldier is obviously torturing that poor little Iraqi bird. Probably stroked its feathers in a ruff and inhumane way.

What are our soldiers coming to?? *sob*

Sure looks like Tropic Lightning (25th Mech). One possibility is that he may be wearing his current unit patch on the other shoulder. Don't know Army SOP these days.
