The MV-22 Osprey making her first combat flights. That is one impressive bird. I love it, don't want to fly in anything else now, i'm spoiled.
A close second to the Osprey is the amazing MRAP! This one known as the Cougar. These things save lives, no doubt about it. We have one here that has been through an IED hit, besides the holes through the sheetmetal fenders and an impact to the bullet proof glass all it needed was a new tire and it was back on the road with NO INJURIES to the occupants! As much as I love the HMMWV's, they must go, get more MRAPs! They still have that new "Armored Vehicle Smell"!

wow- cool stuff... I guess thats a perk of being a marine... flying in ospreys and riding in cougars ;)
Hey Matt that MRAP is quite the vehicle I wish they had gotten them sooner and there was more of them. I have heard many good things about them on the news and I agree from what I have seen on Military channel and all they defintely save lives. I have written my congressman to vote for more and keep our troops safe it is our responsibility to let our elected officials know that our troops safety is above and beyond all politics or anything else. Great pictures Son. Love Dad
