We found Exocet missles in Iraq that had English placards on them from the manufacturer. English is the language of the arms trade in general. The speed dials in the driver's compartment were not Arabic numerals and the instruments were labeled in English as well. Strange, but true.
Thanks. I appreciate it. If everyone just passed the word along to everyone they know abouy my site, I would be very happy. The website was a lot of work. You can also look in the Duffel Bag and see some of the things I brought back from Iraq. http://www.american-interrupted.com
Not at all. My aim is just to share some interesting information. I just got around to putting this video on the web and think it is unlike anything I have seen on the web. Fact is stranger than fiction in Iraq.
It will be on Amazon, but to tell you the truth, I haven't been pushing my book too much. You can buy the book on my website, but I am not getting rich selling it. It is more just to share my real experiences there with friends and family. There are still some copies left on my website. There isn't another book like it out there. I didn't make this post to sell books though, but I appreciate the interest. I want to offer as much free information about my experience in Iraq as possible.
A former U.S. Army corporal who served in Iraq shortly after the fall of Baghdad in 2003 until the Summer of 2004 has published a book called "American, Interrupted." More importantly, he recently published two videos on his website depicting European weapons and NBC equipment. In one video, the "Made in France" stamp can be clearly seen inside an Iraqi heavy tank. Another video shows Italian mines, German chemicals, and German NBC equipment at an officers college in Baghdad. Video also shows medical supplies captured by Muqtadr Al-Sadr's militias that were intended for Iraqi hospitals.
