German President Horst Koehler lays a wreath at the courtyard of the Bendlerblock, the former German army's supreme headquarters and now the German Ministry of Defense, 20 July 2004 in Berlin, during a commemoration ceremony of the German government. In this courtyard, some of the key persons planning the 20 July 1944 assassination attempt against Adolf Hitler were executed, among them the leader of the plot, Count Claus Graf Schenk von Stauffenberg. He planted a bomb during a staff meeting with Hitler on 20 July 1944. Though the bomb went off, Hitler was not killed. Von Stauffenberg escaped the blast but was captured and executed the same day. The assassination attempt of 20 July 1944 marked the end of many years of efforts by top administrative officials and members of the military to change the course of the war from the centre of power by putting an end to Hitler's leadership.

it looks like Soviet Fagot (AT-4)

Though the launcher is the same, the missile in this case is a Konkurs-M(9M-113M ??). Fagot(or Spigot), 9M-111(?) has a range of 2000m or 2500 in the improved model. Konkurs has 4000m range, I think.

I don't know what the guy's on the two ends are wearing, but then you have a guy wearing the US 6 color desert pattern, what appears to be the US woodland pattern, and 2 guys wearing that god-awful blue DPM pattern I've seen in pictures of what are usually internal security troops or state police forces in various middle eastern countries, namely Saudi Arabia. I also seem to remember seeing it being worn by guys in Lebanon too.

Wierd looking, but reminds me of an improvised man pack antenna that an infantry signals NCO came up with a few years back for the PRC 351/2. The signals heirachy poo pooed it, but it had good feedback in the journals, especially for thick woodland.

Souda Bay, Crete, Greece (July 17, 2004) – Master-at-Arms Seaman Apprentice Nathan Hastings, from Henry, Ill., scans the surrounding area while standing a pier security watch as the Los Angeles-class attack submarine USS Dallas (SSN 700) prepares to get underway from Souda Bay, Crete, Greece. Commissioned in 1981, Dallas is the first Los Angeles-class submarine to have a Dry Deck Shelter (DDS). Dry Deck Shelters provide specially configured nuclear powered submarines with a greater capability of deploying Special Operations Forces (SOF). DDSs can transport, deploy, and recover SOF teams from Combat Rubber Raiding Crafts (CRRCs) or SEAL Delivery Vehicles (SDVs), all while remaining submerged. In an era of littoral warfare, this capability substantially enhances the combat flexibility of both the submarine and SOF personnel.

Looks like a Trijicon Reflex/Reflex II to me. I don't remember seeing very many pictures of British operators with the light fore-end for their HK 53's though.

NELLIS AIR FORCE BASE, Nev. -- Maj. Michael Hernandez, 422nd Test and Evaluation Squadron, an F/A-22 pilot, discusses preflight operations with Senior Airman James Douglass, 422nd TES, F/A-22 crew chief. The F/A-22 is the newest fighter in the Air Force inventory and is currently undergoing test and evaluation here. The new fighter is tentatively scheduled to be operational in late 2005.

The cockpit lights up like that? The F/A-22 is so goddamn sick.

Anbody else remember when Cripsin Glover (aka "McFly" on Back to the Future) had a cocaine induced moment of total loss on David Letterman. He jumped up out of Dave's chair, back when Late Night was on NBC, and did about 3-4 kicks and screamed out "I can kick".

I think this kid thinks he's Crispin. "Look at me, I can kick!"

I don't know the name of the antenna but it is used to stop remote detonation of road side bombs, it disrupts the radio signal to the device.

this weird looking antenna is part of protection system many of combat vehicles have it installed,it's main purpose is ECM or jamming radio frequency operated[activated] IED's

It looks f**k all like any of the ECM antennae we use. Can any of the Yanks (who know what they're talking about) confirm this?
