    That's a M-249 SAW (Minimi), not an M-60.

    Lt. Col Burrus had a very long and successful career, including tours in several special operations units, becoming a fiction writer, and singing back-up on a country western album. At the time of the picture, he was Delta's XO.

    RIP Tobias Retterath & Thomas Hafenecker



    German Interior Minister Otto Schily holds a speech 29 June 2004, in Bonn, during a memorial service for two German elite security officers killed in Iraq last April. The two elite policemen, Tobias Retterath and Thomas Hafenecker were in a convoy that had left Amman for Baghdad to replace two of their colleagues.
