I hate doing this, but it is one of my pet peeves, The Msgt (Master Sergeant) in the picture is a marine, Just look at his cover and you will see the Marine exclusive Eagle Globe and Anchor. Just because someone is in the military doesnt automatically make him in the Army.

Good pictures. If this was a deployment where you were out in the middle of nowhere, where did the tarmac and hangars come from?

If you want to host the high res pics somewhere I will give you upload info to my site and we can make a gallery if you want.

I love harriers. Too bad they are Marine and Royal Navy only......
And Royal Air Force. They had em out in Kuwait when I was there.

Also about the hangars. Yes there are hangars there, and a normal ATC tower. But I can guarantee you that this was the middle of nowhere. It's a tiny ARMY base called YPG. That's all that is there. The population of that base is prolly about 200. And we weren't even on the base really, we were just at their lil airfield. The base is where the ARMY jump school trains. So there are a couple hangars for their little prop airplanes. The base has a grocery store, a qwikemart thing, and one tiny dinner called the Cactus Cafe. That's it. And that was all about 15 minutes away from where we were. To me, that is the middle of nowhere. No showers, no bathrooms (they supplied us with portajohns tho!!), MRE's for food, sleep on a cot on a dirt floor, had a few sandstorms out there, it just isn't a whole lotta fun. But it was the last one I'll ever have to go on!!! YEAH OK WHAT!!!!

also my master sergeant is pretty cool. I guess it was just the pic that makes him look angry. He was a drill instructor awhile back. And when we go on deployments, he whips out his DI hat and wears it around. Also about the pics, if you gotta place i can put the big ones then lemme know man. I also have some keg stand pics of me if anyone wants to see.

its from my party for getting promoted
