FF.

Should you hear your named called from the other side of a sand-dune, please remember it is a trap.


Take care, keep your head down and you'll be home in no time. However until that time, I'll enjoy the extra beer for the both of us.

And I'll skip all the booze in solidarity with fantomfreq. Hope he's OK, I bet it's getting as hot as Hades over there.

Just letting FF know that we remember him and care about his welfare while he's Over There. If you need something please let us know, we are in the land of the big PX. Watch out for camel spiders, they're huge!

And scorpions. They hurt a lot more than they look. And they don't look so great, either.

Aren't we supposed to be cheering him up or something? I think all we are doing is listing dangerous fauna.

One of the shifts at the flight line actually caught a camel spider and are keeping it as a pet. Somebody named it Judd Rivers for one reason or another. Supposedly it's just a baby, but it's already about as big as my palm.

We're not exactly among fantomfreq's first fifty priorities, I'm glad that he checked in! I've seen a clip of a full grown camel spider, they are huge and they move very fast. Scary!

Scary, but not venomous, and generally don't attack humans. A great many of the characteristics attributed to them are apparently not true....

The one that's being kept at the flight line is supposedly just a young one, but it's still large enough to scare the crap out of me. Also, a second bonus photo of something that happened earlier this week.

All those pieces WERE part of a whole plane, until it hit the ground real hard.

I'm guessing no second chances on that landing?

I hope that the crew of the bird that's now in pieces got away from the aircraft in time. The Army flies rotary wing machines exclusively, ejecting from them is impossible. Unless they still fly Chickenhawks, but OV-1's are very old by now.
I read that it's very hot over there. Hope you're getting used to it! Yeah, easy for me to say. Drop us a PM if you can, please.
