Well, we are back from our mission at TQ, and it was a good mission, and would like to say we are happy to be back, but the politics were NOT missed, but as we deal with that, take a look at some pictures from the trip. Thanks to the 2/28th BCT for the hospitality out west.
We were able to hop a Marine Chinook out of TQ, and go to the IZ(Downtown), and then wait an hour and BINGO, back to Victory. It feels kind of free to not really have a plan getting somewhere, and that is the way it works when you have to travel here. You have to get a flight somewhere, and when you get there wait to get to the next place. Kinda cool, as you get to see some places you would not normally see!
Let me explain some of these pics!
One is of me standing next to an old bomber at TQ!
One is the "FREE" one that the long sleeve tshirt wearing Marine gave me after Curt took the picture!
One is downtown, at the Tomb of the unknown soldier, and in the back of that is CrosSabers, and the parade stadium I had been to last year!
The last one is the high desert battlefield of old, and you can see remnants of the origional war and armored vehicles in their bunkers!
Later,
Erik
