Shots of Iraq in August

I have said it many times and it is so true I will say it again, the kids of Iraq love the American soldier.











You just never know what you will run into on patrol.
















This aircraft was damaged when landing so it had to be demolished to clear the runway.



Water, water, everywhere.....water is as important as bullets over here... 125 degrees takes its toll on you. You can never have enough to drink. This soldier is ready.







This is the safest view you can take of Baghdad. I have taken this aireal journey to the IZ many times. The unique beauty of the city never fails to grab me. Besides, we have to look for the guy who may want to shoot you down...

Nice entry, but do you have to mention the guys who want to shoot you? I like the MRAP and donkey juxtoposition, especially since the Army icon/mascot is an ass.
