    Iraq pictures (Walking the Line)

     Came across this post by Michael Yon on his blog.  It has a few pics that with their captions, are an interesting read.

    Combat soldiers have simple dreams. Crude, but simple.

     

    They say things like, “Don’t stand up on this roof because you’ll get shot,” instead of, “The security situation in Ramadi is tenuous and so visitors are advised to wear helmets in the case of some untoward event or happenstance that might occur in a combat zone.”

    If you have the chance, I recommend taking a few extra minutes to read through it all.  Below are the links to where I got these pictures from and the other installments from the series.  Others, like Malkin are linking to the Yon blog also.  Thumbs up.
