Default MSOC World Tour

Here's a couple of my holiday snaps for you all to share...

Kabul (ISAF HQ), this was the weekend before the ISAF HQ wqas bombed, I was there that weekend too



Kabul airport, I wasn't there the weekend that was bombed



It was a long weekend

Kabul, UK camp...



Bastion Camp at sunset



And the next morning at sunrise



A little US toy we got to play with




And a special message for the Taliban from the MSOC

The bomb message is quality. Seems like you had a couple of eventful weekends. You guys are doing a streling job. Hat's off to you all

nice one jon
but you have the wrong font for our logo mate
and it just dont suit the bomb
and seeing as you have not been to a meet for 2 months
the membership commitee have decided
that you will be excluded from the club
and have to buy us all a beer on your return
to even be considered for membership renewal

stay safe mate

Sorry Pete, I'll get practising on the font

But I'd be happy to go out for a beer, only one mind because I'll fall over after that - not had a beer for 3 months now

Awesome pics and total respect to you & all the guys & girls there with you.

Having grown up in a Forces family I know how hard it is to be separated from friends & family - but everyone will be VERY proud of what you're doing!

Stay safe.
