Army Staff Sgt. Nicholas Rose, right, embraces his wife, Athena, second from right, while Pvt. Everette McDaniel, second from left, and Pvt. Kathleen McDaniel hug before deploying from Pope Air Force Base, N.C., on Wednesday.

Army Staff Sgt. Ronald Johnson cries while holding his wife, Staff Sgt. Alisha Johnson, before she deploys from Pope Air Force Base, on Wednesday.

A soldier talks on a cell phone before deploying from Pope Air Force Base, N.C., on Wednesday. About 300 soldiers with the Fort Bragg, N.C.-based 1st Corps Support Command departed for Iraq.

Can you hear me now?

Soldiers walk toward a plane to deploy from Pope Air Force Base, N.C., on Wednesday.

Meanwhile, photographers and reporters were chauffeured over the runway to their first class seats while porters toted their personal carry on bags for them.

 

Airmen with the 90th Fighter Squadron take off in an F-15E Strike Eagle fighter at Elmendorf Air Force Base, Alaska, on Tuesday, for deployment to the western Pacific.

The flight was delayed in order that the Airmen could have lunch on Base because they universally dislike the in-flight meals with the most common complaint being that food always tastes so "plane."

 

 

A Marine with 3/5 Lima Company patrols the city of Fallujah, Iraq on Tuesday.

It seems that the city has been cleaned out of all the adversaries with the exclusion of the lefty reporters.

 

Briefly detained Iraqi civilians, caught in Fallujah, jump from the back of a Marine truck after being released in the town of Saqlawiyah on the outskirts of Fallujah on Tuesday.

It is anticipated that the Public transportation system in Fallujah is going to soon see some big improvements.

A Marine Humvee enters Fallujah on Tuesday.

There was a massive exodus of insurgents just after the Marines arrived on the scene. Coincidence? I think not!

 

A soldier with the 3rd Battalion, 21st Regiment of the Stryker Brigade cleans the gun on an armored vehicle inside the unit’s camp in northern Mosul, Iraq, on Wednesday.

No self respecting Troop would ever go into a hostile area without a gun barrel that has been spit polished.


Soldiers with the 3rd Battalion, 21st Regiment of the Stryker Brigade clean their weapons inside their camp in northern Mosul, Iraq, on Wednesday.

Gosh, everyday it is the same old thing in these lunch boxes from the mess hall.

A camera belonging to Iraqi journalists sits atop a U.S. armored vehicle. Journalists from several foreign news agencies were stopped by U.S. soldiers shortly after a roadside bomb exploded along the airport road on the outskirts of Baghdad on Wednesday.

OK, we gotta get that camera back. There is only two of them and there are six of us, we can take these guys.

 

A B-52B launch aircraft lifts off with NASA’s X-43A hypersonic research aircraft and its modified Pegasus booster rocket attached under its right wing. NASA is attempting to break its own aircraft-speed record by flying the X-43A at about 7,000 mph, about 10 times the speed of sound. The launch was Tuesday at NASA Dryden Flight Research Center at Edwards Air Force Base, Calif.

In an effort to increase revenues, the Air Force has begun to allow corporate advertising on many of it's craft.


In the image from NASA television, the Pegasus booster rocket, with NASA’s X-43A hypersonic research aircraft attached at the front, fires after release from the launch craft as NASA attempts to break its own aircraft-speed record at NASA Dryden Flight Research Center at Edwards Air Force Base, Calif.

When it absolutely, positively, has to be there overnight!

 

A woman waves a national flag to soldiers aboard chartered fishing boats in Islamorada as they depart for a day of angling off the Florida Keys on Tuesday. About 60 military personnel took part in free fishing trips during the “Take a Soldier Fishing” program sponsored by Islamorada-area charter boats and other Keys business. All participating soldiers served either in Iraq or Afghanistan.

Meanwhile, in Chicago, the "Take a Soldier Burka Shopping" program was not received as enthusiastically. 

National Guard Sgt. Kevin Larrabee weighs a mackerel he caught near Islamorada, off the Florida Keys, on Tuesday.

Hey TomKow6 wanna buy some mackerel?

Hey Tom. You were wrong about Ma going to a Nudist Camp. Look at the outfit she has on. She's definitely afraid of exposure!
