Interesting to see the ANA carrying the old Canadian C7 rifle! When I was over, they only had AK's still. Canada supplied the ANA with our old C7's to get them down to the NATO standard 5.56 round.

US Army from July 2001 to July 2005
11B Infantry stationed at Ft. Lewis WA
E-5 when I ETS

Deployed to Iraq in Nov 03 to Nov 04 with the first Stryker Brigade to ever deploy. After I got out of the military, I got a job training soldiers with the company that makes the Stryker vehicle. So its almost as if I've never left the Army since I train soldiers on weapons and other equipment on a daily basis for the past 7 1/2 years.


I'm the young kid kneeling. This was 02, we deployed with 2/75 Ranger Battalion to Roswell NM to do an airfield seizure. Pretty cool stuff.

Well, I didn't serve (I never got a call back from the recruiter), but wanted to pop in and say thanks to all of you. (I didn't see a Canadian flag in the smilies list for you, Wheee!, but the thanks applies to you too!)
