I'll add my contribution from Al Faw palace- this time from the inside.

I didn't take many pictures of my most recent trip to Afghanistan, although it was a lot more scenic than Iraq.

Here is a picture of one of our Coyotes (armoured vehicle) during a tactical medical training scenario.
Part of my job is to train non-medical personnel on some more advanced procedures in a tactical situation before tour. Even teach some RCMP.
It's a good time, we have a great fake bomb system using talcom powder and it's great to cover someone with 20 years experience with it lol.

Neither, I'm afraid, I'm a bit further south at the only other USAF base with a working Runway.
Well, I am at the moment as we're going into care & maintainance status, so I might have to move elsewhere!

Wow! That looks pretty crazy. I'm the AUXO on DDG 61, RAMAGE, and have never been through anything like that. Worst I've felt would either be crash backs or a tug coming in a bit too fast. haha

What was/is your job there?

 

[Norbert]

Okay, here's the rules, no gore and think OPSEC.

Here's my last day at work headed to my "Freedom Flight"!!!

The second is with a glass of Middleton in the Shannon airport about 96 hours later. First drink in 6 months.

i get to see what hellgate looks like!

I was the CF Div LPO at the time. It was definitely a wild feeling having the ship fall out from under you. If I remember right this was Shock 3 so it was the closest of the 3 blasts we did.
