Afghan Raid.
Unit unidentified. Interesting though. Multicam but no unit patches. Working with Afghan National Army---AND---they have two three combat camera men along for the ride! I wonder if they were documenting as well as covering this action?

No vests?
ReplyDeleteI think I see a plate carrier in the third photo. What gets me is that these guys are high speed in the gear load outs but seem to be just a bunch of joes when it comes to their weapons fit.
ReplyDeleteThose are plain jane M4's. Not one scar in evidence, the weapons aren't even painted and the mags appear to be issue.
What did catch my eye was the M249 in the second photo, I think that's the SEAL version but I can't get a good enough look to be sure.
The second photo has been 'shopped, I do believe. Look at the right arms of the two European looking guys in the background. Looks like little cloned circles covering something. Unit patch or something identifiable, I bet.
ReplyDeleteThe second and third photo it looks like the multicam is only on the arms and collar. Their backs look plain and it does not seem like a second garment to me.
Maybe they were told to use standard gear for this particular mission. So they wouldn't stick out. Or so the Afghani's couldn't say, "you have better stuff, you won't even use the stuff you're giving us".
hahahah you guys are pretty funny when you dont know ish about whats going on at alll but this was the point of the shot so you guys wouldn't know who these guys r SGT LOL
ReplyDeletewow, you're a moron aren't you.
ReplyDeleteshut the fuck up, go grab your mommies titty and stay off my site.
Carrying M-16s. The only guys carrying M-16s in Afghanistan are the Americans, Canadians and Dutch. These guys are not Americans or Canucks, so that would leave the Dutch.
ReplyDeletethey're carrying M4's. what's your point?
ReplyDeleteAnd no they're not Dutch. They don't wear Multicam. They don't have US Army combat cameramen. Geez.
ReplyDeleteUm sir sir could i get some of that haterade you drinking that way i can see your side of the FOB. It always is easy to state your opinion from inside the wire pal. Get a real job! Thanks for viewing my pic Tho!

Second pic was taken by a relative of mine. It hasn't been 'shopped'.
