This was moving at 60 mph....now I understand better why we had such problems with this early on in this conflict enroute to Baghdad.

I'm told this is Al Asad Airfield, the second largest airbase in Iraq. Can not vouch for validity of that statement. Al Asad is located in northern Iraq approximately 180 kilometers West of Baghdad and 12 kilometers Southwest of the Euphrates River.

See: http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/world/iraq/al-asad.htm for more info on this base.

Sure are a lot of people standing around outside ... I believe I'd take my pics and find some shelter.

Seen this sort of thing in the movies but always figured it was exaggerated. Cool pics.

i thought the pictures were amazing, until i saw the video.

That's like the big wall of sand in "The Mummy" but a lot more intimidating....
