Oh...AWT. A great way to train (mess with) Soldiers while staying at home. This time, thankfully,
was broken up some some semi-useful and entertaining tasks.
My military imagery is available for public domain. As the photographer, I don't have control over
how you may use it, but I ask that it be done with respect to the individuals represented here.

It's a great job, but also frustrating.

OK, I know it's a serious photo of a serious operation, but your title just had to make me laugh...

Nah, it wasn't too serious...we had guys jumping from the tops of the connexes for 'ninja attacks'.
SSG P was the one who gave me the idea, he "pew pew-ed" his way throughout the entire scenario.

Oh yea! My 9 month old would do it, my 9 year old wouldn't. He's not the military type. No amount of discipline would be emparted on him. He'd just stand there and cry.....lol

Hahahaha, sounds like my oldest. I'll tell him to stop what he's doing and go to the bathroom....an outsider would think that I just told him to go kill his cat.

The guys in this photo arefrom my company, fellow combat cameramen. We were just doing some tactical training at home. With other units, we do our best to document while still being able to keep up with the other guys - we're trained in a very similar fashion ot them.

Okayyyy... I haven't heard about that before... It's nice. Because of the documents, because it bring to us informations from the war. Before i saw your gallery, war wasn't like it is in reality... You know what i want to say ?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yep! I didn't really understand the war until I was actually in it. It's what motivated me to start documenting 'the other side' of it.

I think it's good and responsible. It's people like you who brings us a little bit of reality !
