"Arrrrrrmy Training Sir!"

One sweet Pimped-Up ride.


Air Force using Army tactics... who would have thought?


"10-4 Pig Pen, this here's the Rubber Duck, we've got ourselves a convoy."

This is a 5-Star Establishment compared to most places. The Cot Tents helped to keep out the scorpions and tarantulas.




Load'em up for the Convoy.


Hand to hand, Air Force style. Just hit'em in the 'nads and kick them when they're down.


Like I said earlier, I'm still amazed the Air Force has finally started training their folks before they deploy to a Combat Zone. It's definitely paid off so far.

I give you.... The Final Product.


That's a Fac' Jack.

Ooooooh ... you have Tent Cots!

Those are very cool ... great for camping, too. Although I have to admit that seeing them INSIDE a tent is kind of weird. *lol*

Well, it probably is a good idea to keep the scorpions and other things away when you're sleeping.

And Just wait until every day seems like "GroundHog Day" from another great Murray pix.

Tent cots? When they start issuing those?

The saga of our field uniform continues. We should have all just saved ourselves some money and used the Marine Corps utilities. How different can the requirements be between the services for a field utility uniform? The new Marine uniform isn't that different from our old BDUs and would probably work fine for all the services. Save some R&D and acquisition program money too.

I guess the question is: Who got a job and/or payoff for the uniforms?
