:thumbup: I like the 'pornographic' comment! I'm a junkie!
I can hear NA screaming at me now..........
Hey Humbo - no doubt about the DU - keep in mind though, everyone in the military using them knows what the deal is. I clearly knew the risk and so do many. Dont get me wrong, what happened the first time around in the Gulf was BAD! VERY BAD! So bad that it has been since covered up. However, it certainly wasn't with intent on the governments part. Let me repeat that, wasn't with INTENT. But it was certainly done with people in the know of the inherent possible risks. I honestly just dont think anyone knew how severe it could be. Without DU however, making gravy out of Enemy Armor wouldnt be a walk in the park. Unless you know of something harder and more formable that will pierce the armor on a tank and so on. For now, we assess and take the risk. More cautiously than ever might I add.
So wheres some more of this war porn?!?!?! I need to compile a DVD of it just to keep going on my laptop all day for motivational purposes.
For anyone who was watching the news this weekend, there was a pretty bad bombing in Baghdad on Sunday. An SUV loaded up with 1,000 lbs of explosive went up at Assassins Gate. For my buddy over there, that place is called MOAC. Since the incident, we have not heard from him. From what we have heard and read, there were only injury to U.S. troops and no casualties, but trying to get a name is impossible. I just hope we hear from him soon. He is on Guard Post there. So yes, he was at the gate. His name to us is Taco. I just hope he still has all his meat and cheese intact!
