NO, I AM NOT, AND HAVE NOT BEEN, IN AFGHANISTAN. THIS PHOTO WAS NOT TAKEN BY ME, BUT WAS IN FACT TAKEN BY MY BROTHER-IN-LAW WHO IS CURRENTLY SERVING OUT THERE NOW AS A SHARPSHOOTER. I JUST WANTED TO SHARE HIS PHOTOS HERE.

My sister bought him a digital camera and he's made good use out of it!

good good

you know my family have been tracing the family tree recently, i haven't looked at or had the chance to partake in it as my aunty is a controling person and all
but yeah alot of the history was lost as i have heard and made it hard all i know is my grand-farther was one hell of a rifleman, and served in forty second gunner regiment in ww2 i think, then went on to being a royal guard where both Grandfarther Webb and grandfarther Coull both served and pulled the kings coffin when he passed together, not knowing that years later would both be the grandfarther of the same child lol
but yeah i wish him the best out there it isnt easy so i salute him :)

Haha, sweet! I've always wanted to trace my family tree back but never had the chance. I know my great-grandad lived in Canada during the 20s and was a bootlegger, which is pretty cool ;P.

I'm not entirely sure on the name, but it's a sniper rifle. Here's a bigger picture of it from his Facebook: [link]

There's a sniper rifle from Fallout 3 that looks a lot like that.

Wow! In the US it seems like people have all forgotten about this war. That is except for those with loved ones over there.

Unfortunately, it is still very much in the minds of the British public. We have lost over 400 soldiers now, and that figure is far too much. 7 of those 400 I knew. :(
