Ahhhh, Ireland. Great place. Got trashed there coming home from Iraq.

Great photos, especially the group shots. It puts a human face on all the stories you see in the papers and on television.

Was Michael Probst, the soldier who was killed, a close friend of yours? Sincere condolences to you and to his family. Too many young lives, full of promise, cut down too early.

He was, he was killed on valentines day last year. I had to fly to dover in my blues and pic up the body and escort it back to california. Then me and 5 of my friends were paulbears in his funeral, It was probably the single hardest thing i've ever had to do, I leaked like a faucet the entire ceremony, full millitary honors. And every shot on the 21 gun salute just made it all the more real. He was 26 with a bachelors degree and decided he wanted adventure and physical training.

This is a series of pictures that show the whole process of a Combat Airborne jump that I did back in the day.

Pic 1: Sitting on the Tarmac waiting to board the C-5 Aircraft Carrier we were jumping that day.

Pic 2: Getting ready to jump out of the C-5 right before our Drop Zone.

Pic 3: Just did my Jump and taking pics of the other members in my stick who jumped (in the distance you can see the C-5 with a jumper who just came out on the left side of the pic)

Pic 4: The View from 3,000 feet up.

Pic 5 Getting ready to hit the ground

**BigLittleTim** · 01-19-2007, 02:56 PM

A fan of bills, a bottle of tabasco sauce, and a pile of... vomit??

Looks more like a fraternity photo than a military pic.

We got a down day in Shannon. Went out and got drunk. I think I got thrown out of 5 clubs for accusing the bouncers of being members of the IRA. Then I was in the bathroom pissing, and 3 hot chicks came in. They realized they were in the wrong bathroom but didn't care. So I'm standing next to 3 drunk chicks pissing backwards into a urinal. Ahhhh good times.

Kuwait wasn't bad. Ali Asalem was ok. Camp Victory had an awsome chow hall.

Great pics dude. But the chic on the bottom left in the wedding photo is uglier than you

**dhriscerr** · 01-20-2007, 07:51 PM

Only the top 3 in each row were the bridesmaids, The other two were my wifes young cousins so they were honorary brides maids. ASSHOLE!
