Desert Eagle

Last week I was walking through the parking lot at the commissary when I noticed a copy of our base paper, The Desert Eagle all torn up on the ground. I picked it up and intended to throw it away and on the front page there was a really cool photo. As I read the caption under the photo, I realized it was my husband in the photo. Both photos were taken up in Vegas during Red Flag a few weeks ago.

Thanks, Tracy for the post idea.
