Who got Zarqawi?

[Guitar rocker]

Actually, I am sure that he had call ahead seating to hell.

My hat goes off as well to all of our military personnel in Iraq, Afghanistan and all over the world.

 

[XShipRider]

This just proves training pays dividends.

Outstanding.

The vid is difficult to see, but I think it's an AT pod. I've got a lot of time with Lantirn and Sniper, but only two sorties with a Litening pod. Any other Guard guys with alot of Litening time want to chime in? I'd like to hear thoughts on the TV mode.

Unless recently moded, the Sniper can't go wide FOV in TV. I like AT better overall. If they could combine the strengths of both pods it would be great. I don't want to go into too much on here though.

That's true. I'm a Sniper fan myself, but it was slapped on a blk 50 MMC 3.4 jet and that might have colored my thinking. Just more familiar with it I guess. Ironically, the sniper vid is sharper on the monochrome SCU-5 MFDs than the blk 50 MFDs. I know why that is, but no need for detail here.

GO GUARD!!

sorry, if i could delete the post I would...this info however is all over the internet so its not like I released some sensitive info, but I understand where yall are coming from.

Gentlemen I believe that the forum moderators should get involved here and edit this information ASAP.

IR is better in the Sniper but the FOV sucks in tv (narrow only)
The big brains are working on a combined mode with tv in narrow surrounded by IR in wide. The video I saw was very good.

Just for theatrics, we should have dropped some napalm on the SOB's after the first two 500 pounders. That would have freaked the habibi's out.

 

[C-150ETOPS]

With all the palm trees around, I think a psyops C-130 blasting "The End" by the Doors shortly before impact would have been a good addition.

I don't appreciate having my post deleted. There was no information in my post that you could not find in the Tuesday Chicago Tribune. Get a grip.

 

[Cpt. Underpants]

I hope the S-O-B died in excrutiating pain, whimpering like a dog. I hope he realized who got him and saw them. I hope he begged for mercy, received none and that he burns in hell for an eternity. Good riddance.

A pox on the journos who wanted to know if he was treated humanely...About as humanely as he treated Nick Berg and others before he murdered them.

I hate these scum who murder in the name of their god and then hide behind every civilised nations' bill of rights. Toss out their rights when they ignore ours. We should shoot first and ask questions later.

Well done guys, good shooting.

Gee Capt. Dont hold back. Tell us how you really feel.

Hey Lear...there are bad guys in this world who may not have access to Chicago newspapers, but do have access to the internet and this site.

I'm not going to sit around and give out info that may aid the bad guys, even though that information seems rather innocuous to you. Put all of the info together and, voila! Somebody may be threatened.

BTW I got my grip years ago... And I still have it. Thanks.

 

[Lear Wanna Be]

Have access to the site but not the Chicago Tribune which is online. Doubtful, come on you can do better than that. Lame, lame, lame.

Hey civi,
listen to the mil guys...and shut your man-pleaser!

Fox News is reporting that he was alive when US forces arrived and he rolled off the gurney the Iraqis were carrying him on and tried to get away.

That means 2 great things:

1. It was a slow, painful death.
2. He knows exactly who killed him.

I agree. My first thoughts seeing the reports was that this vermin died far to quickly. I would of preferred a long slow painful death while his internal bleeding let him rot from within. I was overjoyed later knowing that his last waking moments on earth were filled with dread and terror.

God bless each and every one of our troops. My prayers are with you daily for you all to come home safe and be with your families again.

Excellent advice.

I have a better idea. Use some anti personnel cluster bombs and fill them with pork rinds.

Has anyone read up on Roosevelt and the rough riders in what they used to do with the Islamic fanatics they killed?

Captain Picard got Zarqawi

Magnum - if you need help with the Litening AT pod - you can come to me for help. J/K!!! I think I've got a whopping 10 sorties with it myself. But if you need some Air-Air academics on OCA, I actually do know a thing about that.

See ya soon brotha! Scrapdog

 

[Steeler Fan]

Although this could be construed as sensitive information, I believe Zarqawi was a Browns fan.

Here's a going away letter from the Zarkman.

http://iowahawk.typepad.com/iowahawk/2006/06/paradise_blows.html

Here's a good quote:

"You think I didn't see this martyrdom goatsh*t coming? Cracka, please. When we were out in the boondocks filming that recruiting infomercial last month, I told that a$$hole Zawahiri that it was dangerous, that Team Satan would lock in on us with one of their outer space high tech computer gizmos. But nooooooo, he's all, "don't worry, they need an NSA warrant," and then he's like, "we have to attack the mindshare gap with a high GRP, Total Quality Jihad leadership marcom message." Which apparently means I have to stand there under Team Satan's godd*mn spy satellites, yelling like the godd*mn OxyClean guy, burning my godd*mn hand on a godd*mn machine gun barrel, while that godd*mn director Omar Al-Spielberg asks for another godd*mn take. Yeah, that's some world class marketing strategery there, Ayman. Best ad campaign since Pets.com. Have fun training all four of those Syrian droolers that it brought in."
