5 Incredible Firefight Photos From One Of Afghanistan’s Deadliest Provinces

SA Jim Arnold building a fire with a bow drill is not good, when the smoke and fire is the last thing you want to be seen, I concur.

CPO (Join to see) That would be it. There are no words for the respect for you guys in those outposts.

SFC George Smith unless it was a photographer who was not a part of the combat team. Civilian for example. I agree though, shoot the people trying to kill you first, pictures later. I certainly would not want to be in a firefight armed only with a camera.

PO3 Steven Sherrill - Combat Camera is trained to do that, and their job is to take photos of combat action, how do you think we see all the photos of SOF guy's going through Doors, it is Combat Camera. The purpose is history, Intel, after action Intel and to help in a cease of war crime or to defend in that case. These guy's go through tough training and part of that is doing there job recording combat history. These are not the same as PAO, they are trained for combat.

PO3 Steven Sherrill Combat Camera, their job is to take photos and video of troops working down range in all conditions.

CPO (Join to see) - yeah, that has to be a tough sell. We want to train you to go into combat, to face the enemy, to be courageous under fire, oh yeah, and to carry a 35mm instead of a 5.56MM.
