My lass has gone shopping for stuff for me since we started dating. So far I have 3 maps from either 82nd Airborne or 101st Airborne locations in France and a piece of parachute silk from the Normandy drops. I've collected sand from Omaha Beach, a piece of concrete from the German structures at Point du Hoc, a couple of PsyOp leaflets I found in a field near Baghdad during the invasion, a couple of fragments from some rockets that were fired at us in January, a couple of flags from Karbala and Baghdad, and some old Iraqi money. I had three bayonets that I found in Karbala and carried all the way to Mosul, but they made us turn them in back then. Nowadays you're allowed to keep them.
I'm a well rounded guy - English motorcycles, Irish brew, and Scottish clothes and music.
