Ive never shot or really held a gun so pictures like that almost look fake to me. Its just crazy to me that there are that many people holding guns that can literally rip a person in hald. Scary.

That would be the standard M-4, it's the M-16 only shorter for CQB (close quarters combat) It's fun as hell to shoot.

Two things that stuck out to me as I actually look at these pics. I had no idea you were in the Navy and is that a woman standing with you all in picture number 1?

Yup, it is a woman, a Navy Doc actually. You usually find them embedded as combat medics with Marine units. Yup, I am in the Navy for 7 years now and a looooooooong way away from the Ocean :)

oh and yes, the sand is crazy, especially during a windstorm which is in turn a sandstorm. Vicious

You guys don't pack gas masks?

Voodoobillyman - 12-5-2007 at 04:10 AM

Alright, yes I am an ugly fuck, but it works for me :) HHC stands for Higher Headquarters Command, Yes we have a full chemical/Biological protective suit to include the mask, but at this point in the game we are not required to have them on at all times, just close by in case of emergency. The knee pads are just that, knee pads we wear in case you get into a firefight, the terrain around here is either sand or rocks and could be potentially dmaging. They come in real handy :)
