Afghan Lions

This picture reminded me of one I saw with a pride of lions camped outunder a parked airplane.

 Today we went into a Forward Operating Base (FOB) where shade was at apremium. The aircraft's outside air temp gauge read 43'C - close to110'F. We had to wait (as usual) and it sent everyone scurrying forcover. Although the Afghan's sense of hygiene isn't up to what most ofus would expect, they don't bite and it wasn't too difficult to get themout when we were ready to go.

  1. Awesome pictures! Im sure is a comfort to your family to see these! Go Micah. A couple of years ago Our bishop flew blackhawks in afganastan. When he returned they made his bishop. I guess they figured he could handle combat, he could handle being a bishop. (He just can't shoot any of the bad guys!)
