U.S. Marines with Regimental Combat Team 2 search underneath a railroad car during an operation outside Al Qaim, Iraq, Aug. 22, 2007. (U.S. Marine Corps photo by Lance Cpl. Charles S. Howard)
Note the aggregate hoppers, concrete ties and rail bolts.
I like the weeds growing out of the agg product in the car. It’s probably a MOW car waiting for the next rain/washout event. If they wait much longer this load will come with its own sod for erosion control.
Looking for Extremists?
So does this mean if they come across a Rivet Counter taking measurments, they shoot on site?
[(-D]
I wonder if OS was notified of such operations when he was over there?
I wonder if they got three step first
[(-D]
Either that or it’s the UPRR PD SWAT unit!
GO get 'em, boys!
God Bless our Troops…
That describes most people in the hobby!
That was one of my first thoughts…
To kill and destroy as they do since decades…
…because they see & do what I’ll never have to
You know, looking at the terrain it makes one wonder how or why would anybody want to live there . In Va. here its all green. I love green.
Yes, that is the function of most militaries. In fact, I have yet to see an army that wins by loving their target to death.
I am reminded of one motto in particular:
“If it absolutely positively has to be destroyed tonight - call the US Marines!”
So that folks like you don’t have to fear the folks on the other side who would do you the same service.
By the way, have you ever served?
