An Al Qaeda or Taliban flag. Saw a bunch of PPSHs in a OSI lock up. The AWG unit on base had a numbers matching garand that they picked up off of a target that can't be brought back.

I honestly, and i will never forget, had a mint, i mean frigging prestine ppsh with drum. I thought so hard for months about trying to get it back. When they came to do inspection for our tricon they didnt even check most of my stuff because they were too grossed out by my lts flesh light. I had stacks of aks, and few rpks in Afghanistan, and a worn the hell out Fleshlight... Quote HistoryQuoted:

I've talked with a few friends of mine especially in Iraq and asked the same question. One wanted to bring back a Tariq pistol he found and the other wanted to bring back a Tabuk sniper they found as part of a arms cache. My question to you is what was the one thing "Within reason" You wanted to bring back or if given the option you would have brought back?.....Remember one item.

And you count your blessings for all the near misses and fuckups you made that should have resulted in bad things but didn't. Luck or grace or fate or whatever plays a part. A member here reached out to me about my first deployment a while ago and I appreciated that more than I can convey here although I didn't respond. |

I also wanted to bring back a UN emblem from the 80s I found set in the concrete of a community well during a raid/cache search. It's still there as of 4.5 years ago.
if anyone has a Soviet star from the web gear I would buy it off them. Gave the only legit one I saw to my squad leader from some gear and explosives we found cached that same mission. |

One of my COLT guys was a blond-haired, blue-eyed, All-American-boy-next-door, type. The Afghans took a particular liking to him and offered to give us an RPG, a couple AK's, and some cash in trade for a few days of his company. We tried convincing him that nobody would ever find out and that it would be oh-so-cool to be able to bring home an RPG war trophy. Unfortunately, he didn't feel the same way as we did about sacrificing his anal virginity in the name of alliance building and war trophies.

I got my hands on a sweet Chinese under folder. I probably field stripped and reassembled that mother fucker ten times a day. I would just sit there in my down time day dreaming of ways I could sneak it through customs. I decided I was going to completely disassemble it to its individual components and stuff them in every nook and cranny of one of our vehicles that would be flying back home STRAT-A. At the last minute I pussed out.
