Well our 12 month deployment is coming to an end. I have a pretty big stock pile of pictures from the deployment. Of course im not gonna put anything up that's gonna compromise OPSEC or get my a$$ fried lol We are located in Southern Kandahar. If you don't know I'm Infantry. Been a 240 Gunner the whole deployment (If you see pictures of me with with an M-4 it's because a 240 wasn't needed.) If you have any questions about my gear or anything you see in the pictures feel free to ask.

This is how we live. 20 guys in a single room ( with no A/C or heat lol)

We have a small op on top of hill in the middle of nowhere that we go to observe for a few days at a time. Thats me eating sitting on the cot. The guy sitting next to me wearing the ACU pants is Sniper SPC Kelly Mixon. December 8th while on patrol him and 6 others where hit by a suicide bomber. He didn't make it. He was one of my best friends out here. He is deff missed.

Damn living conditions look rough. Maybe I will rethink volunteering to head there.

Not to steal your thunder, but here's a quick pic to give you an idea of what we stay in in Iraq.
