Looks like the place that supplied Alladins lamp.
That is too funny, please use it in the future.
Right now, our heroes in Iraq and Afghanistan are breaking all EPA regulations, by draining the swamps and eliminating quagmires. In the process, they are also bringing an endangered species (the lesser bearded jihadist) that much closer to extinction.
The wetlands, the wetlands...............
LOL! Me too. I always felt a little bigger, however, with a main battle tank wrapped around me.
You never know. Maybe he just walked up to the podium and announced:
"I am Ricardo Sanchez and I have the fastest 9 Mill in Baghdad!"(in the background we hear that Clint Eastwood/Sergio Leone spaghetti western music...)
I do believe you are correct. I copied the image and adjusted the "gamma" to allow seeing pretty well into that shadow, and it still didn't look like there was a mag in the well. But then the Army tends not to trust the troops with loaded weapons outside of combat zones, which this is, being Turkey, not Iraq or Afghanistan. Hopefully he's carrying a few loaded magazines.
I think that this is the first time I've ever seen these cowards without their stocking caps on.
I suspect it's standing orders for all personell in the area to be armed, and he's just setting a good example for the other troops.
Aye, you're right. I didn't even think about that.
Great work Diogenesis!
