Yeah, sometimes even the Air Force gets to play with fun stuff.
What do I do when the mood to blog has all but fled? Why, post pictures, of course.
Yeah, I feel all better now.
Seeing a Warthog in action does wonders for my attitude.
ReplyDeleteSame here. Something about that 30mm cannon gets the juices flowing.
DeleteThat's the first time I've ever seen a 249 on the tripod. (Carried one for most of OIF III). We had them, but the Army doesn't use the SAW as a crew served weapon so the tripods and T&E stay in the arms room. Fun little beast, although I actually like the early Navy Mk 46 version a little better. I didn't have the silly magazine feed and was a little lighter.
ReplyDeleteDitto. Didn't know it came with one.
