Hello From IraqI don't know much about this picture other than it was sent from an old high school friend of mine who was doing IT work for the Marines in the middle east (quoting what he said: "Basically being a Generals AOL bitch and answering service."). I've yet to write him back, as I haven't had time. Needless to say, he's the guy on the left -- the one that looks like a Central-Oregonian. I won't mention his name, in case he doesn't want me to, but anybody who went to high school with me will recognize the guy.  5 CommentsJesse Thompson said on 05/25/04 @ 12:18 AM:Er.. are they testing a tactical nuke in the background? ;) Blake Hanson said on 05/27/04 @ 10:31 AM: Jake I've got a video of this stuff I need to show ya when I get home. Unless someone has an FTP where I can put a 50meg mpeg file? Jake Ortman said on 05/27/04 @ 10:33 AM: I do have FTP space, just haven't set you up with an account. Been busy as hell at work, but it's on my to-do list :-) Karen Markov said on 08/05/04 @ 11:20 AM: Amazing news about 1st Lt. Mark V. Shaney USMC: "Mortars, machine guns, rocket propelled grenades. And the kid out of Churchville was done 1st Lt. Mark V. Shaney was out ammo. Then he fought with its mortars and riflemen, machineguns and grenadiers. And he fought with the 52th Mountain Division's Charlie Company took cover in shallow ditches and rises and began returning fire in both directions. To move faster, many dropped their 72- pound rucksacks stuffed with food, cold-weather gear, and tried to poke a hole through the Iraqi line his humvee came under direct enemy machine gun emplacement that was attacking his Marines. Over into the humvee directly into the face of heavy enemy fire, and kind of said, 'Oh hell, if I'm not dying." http://www.stadia12k.com/glam/shaney.jpg Rani Rees said on 09/01/05 @ 03:59 PM: I know him too.
