Army Sgt. Michael Row, 21, of Aurora, Colo., looks at inscriptions scrawled by soldiers on a wall of a U.S. observation post in Ramadi, Iraq, Sunday, April 30, 2006.
 
A certain Senator (who will remain unnamed because we don't do politics here in the Canteen) who also recently ran for president and lost has recently complained that American Troops have been defiling the walls of local Latrines in Iraq and he is outraged at the administration, and insists that the Sec defense should resign.  Oh, and Democrats should throw poop at the president.
 
 
U.S. Navy Corpsman Paul Jardine, of Fair Haven, Vermont, climbs through a hole in a wall during a patrol in Fallujah, the site of the largest U.S. battle in Iraq, 65 kilometers (40 miles), west of Baghdad, Iraq, Monday, May 1, 2006.
 
The new Iraq version of E-Bay is a bit primitive when it comes to finding good stuff, but the prices are great.
 
 
 
Airman John Lujan of Marfa, Texas, takes time out of his day for fitness to ensure he is ready for the upcoming semi-annual physical fitness assessment (PFA) aboard the aircraft carrier Dwight D. Eisenhower (CVN 69), on Saturday somewhere in the Atlantic Ocean.
 
Am I the only one confused that an Airman, is on a Navy vessel, In not On the ocean?
 
 
 
The crew of Gun 5, Mike Battery, 3rd Battalion, 11th Marine Regiment, fires 100-pound rounds from their M777 Lightweight Howitzer during a firing mission in Niland, Calif., on April 18.
 
Anybody in the way gets a five cent ...Howitzer BOOM!
 
 
 
The crew of Gun 5, Mike Battery, 3rd Battalion, 11th Marine Regiment, moves the muzzle end of a 10,500-pound M777 Lightweight Howitzer to a different azimuth of fire during weapons tactics instruction in Niland, Calif., on April 19.
 
Hey Sarge, my recruiter told me that the today's Army was high tech, and he said nothing about my having to calculate azimuths without a forklift.

Thanks, Radix, for the pictures of our troops at work. It is confusing about airmen, and navy vessels, and oceans.

Please God, let loved ones see loved ones.

"Hmmm... who is this 'Tomkow' guy, and why does he wear see-thru burkahs?"


Demonstrating the new Tactical Porta-John, cleverly disguised to look like the local scenery.


"Mojo's emailing the Sailor again! The auxiliary generators need a boost!
Row faster! You on the treadmill, pick it up! We've got to have more power!!"


Does anyone else think the gun just sneezed?


"Sarge, it just won't fit in the bed of that truck!"
Shaddap and keep pushing!
