Good photos but now in the public domain,the media should black square those special forces photos faces,arabs are taking details,I hope no one gets recognised in future missions.

it's all ammo and water, most likely. both are heavy, but do you really want to be without either when it really matters??

here's hoping our guys get back home without any trouble.
