IED, improvised explosive device , are modern soldiers worst nightmare.
By the end of 2007 they have been responsible for at least 64% of Coalition deaths in Iraq.
Here is a picture of us special forces targeted by an ied during a night mission in the afghan's desert (yeah it's not in the snow). I keep exploring in the live explosions area, made with bengal fire. You stick several together, and you should get a big blow.
A big thanks to Tiny Tactical and their amazing gear to make this one possible. www.tinytactical.com
Be sure I will do some more modern military pictures !

Five years ago today, this 47 Sqn C-130K Hercules was one of the stars of another RAF Northolt night shoot.
The following week, the last of the RAF's K-model Hercs would be retired to St Athan.

Abkhazia. A country at war. In many places where there are people who hang posters like "Special forces require youl" The proposed salary for this dangerous service - 9000 rubles, about 300 U.S. dollars.
This poster is still the slogan "Just do what should be and that would be" courageous people.
In this case, photographed a poster hanging on the door of the shop. I liked how it formed the sun's rays.
Абхазия. Страна, находящаяся в состоянии войны. Во многих местах, где бывают люди, висят подобные плакаты "Ты нужен спецназу" Предлагаемая зарплата за эту опасную службу - 9000 рублей, около 300 долларов США.
На этом плакате есть еще лозунг "Делай что должен и будь, что будет" Мужественный народ.
В данном случае сфотографирован плакат, висящий на дверях магазина. Мне понравилось, как на него легли солнечные лучи.
Nachdem es inzwischen einige sommerliche Tage gab, wurde auch bei den Special Forces nun endlich "Sommer" befohlen .. 😎👍
After a few summery days, the Special Forces have finally declared "summer"... 😎👍

Remembering all who have fallen for the price of freedom.
NOT A. I.
I also meditate on my neighbor Ronnie Goulet, KIA Vietnam
Service:
United States Army Special Ops Rank: MACV-SOG I believe hand picked by Joint Chief of Staff they were involved in conducting dangerous & secretive covert warfare, strategic recon in Laos, Cambodia, N.Vietnam. Records were sealed in secrecy for decades.
First Lieutenant (Infantry) was killed in action in Cambodia on September 26, 1969. Hatchet Force Unit
Soldier’s Medal Vietnam War
Action Date:September 23, 1968
Department of the Army, General Orders No. 7 (January 20, 1969)
The President of the United States of America, authorized by Act of Congress, July 2, 1926, takes pleasure in presenting the Soldier’s Medal to First Lieutenant (Infantry) Ronald M. Goulet (ASN: 0-5334389), United States Army, for heroism at the risk of life not involving conflict with an armed enemy while participating in a night tactical parachute operation over Gatun Drop Zone, Panama Canal Zone on 23 September 1968.
During the conduct of the parachute jump, as the jumpers were exiting from the door of the C-47 aircraft, the anchor cable in the aircraft broke loose from its forward terminal, resulting in the failure of one jumper’s parachute to deploy. As this jumper left the aircraft, he became entangled in the broken cable and was suspended outside and beneath the aircraft.
Lieutenant Goulet displaying a complete disregard for his own safety, exposed more than half of his body outside the aircraft and, by holding onto the aft door frame with his legs, reached back and under the fuselage to grasp the static line of the unemployed parachute. By the exertion of almost superhuman strength, Lieutenant Goulet pulled the suspended trooper forward toward the door and finally was able to grasp the man’s extended hand.
With the assistance of the other men in the aircraft, the towed jumper was gradually hauled back into the aircraft to safety. In his precarious position, Lieutenant Goulet was pulling against the dead weight of a man buffeted by a 125-knot wind, simultaneously being exposed himself to the turbulence of propeller blast and aircraft instability.
Should he have fallen out of the aircraft, he faced serious injury or death. Lieutenant Goulet’s actions in preventing fatal injury to the towed jumper and in eliminating a situation extremely hazardous to the aircraft were in the highest tradition of unselfish courage and reflect great credit upon himself and the United States Army.

"It was there that a menagerie once stretched out;
it is there that I saw, one day, under a diaphanous
and icy sky, at the hour when Work is awakening
and cleanliness raises a dark hurricane in the air,
a swan that, having escaped from its aviary,
scraping its webbed feet on the pavement,
dragged white feathers across the rough earth.
The beast, its beak open, in a dried-up stream,
wet its wings nervously in the dust,
saying in its heart, filled with the beautiful native lake:
"Water, when will you fall? When will you thunder, lightning?"
Charles Baudelaire - The swan
