Another Great Day at the Range!


Controlled pair!


Keep moving!

Targets in motion


very minor example of what the targets ended up looking like

Terps gettin' some



We're having some perfect spring weather so the Mungadai took advantage of it and made our way back to the range. We mounted our brand new ACOGs (Advanced Combat Optical Gun sight) compliments of "The Kid" and got down to business of adjusting them to the strike of the round. We then had some real fun with a new set of 1/4" steel swinging targets compliments of "Max Wood" and his ability to find things. Unfortunately the 5.56 ammunition turned our beautiful new 1/4" steel swinging targets into Swiss cheese. No need to worry about ricochets, went right through! Even still, we had hours of fun with them. Our Interpreters/ back up got into the mix and learned how to operate our weapons. Top and Buddha made a chow hall run and brought back almost enough cheese burgers and chips. After a great field feed we moved on to the turret mounted weapons and to the huge disappointment of the .50 caliber gunner, his weapon kept jamming.

So, with all the spent brass cleaned out of the trucks, the .50 cal back in fully operational condition and the 1/4" steel swinging targets turned back into the welding shop for some much needed upgrades, the Mungadai called it another great day at the range!

Oh yeah, who brought the blanks?

Air Assault, Mungadai Style







The Mungadai, along with the Raid Company and Coalition Forces, flew to an island on the Tigris River via Blackhawks in search of weapons. The island had green grass, nice trees, and as Hello Kitty later found out, hidden swamps. Boss Mongo showed his ninja skills by gliding over a mud swamp with ease while Hello Kitty, still young in his ways, sunk calf deep into the oily lagoon. Armystrong guided the National Police around the island searching for any signs of caches, while The Kid just tried not to get lost on the 500 x 600 meter island. Though no weapons were found it was still a successful mission between the Iraqi National Police and Coalition Forces working together to keep Mosul secure.

BIG PEOPLE HELPING LITTLE PEOPLE


All battlefield drama was avoided when The Kid pointed out to Hello Kitty that it was merely a cane the little guy was toting around and not an RPG.

Hola from Mexico

Figure I would take a break from the festivities and let everyone know how it is going.



These are my Hosts





And these are my accomodations, very reasonable rates!

I hope everyone is doing well and I ll see you all in 5 to 10. Looking into a work release program.

Tail Gate party with the Mungadai











No Alcohol allowed, but who needs it when the end statement is the same. Eat up boys it will all come out in the end. A true home cooked mill will be much appreciated by all Mungadai. No more Loperamide for any of you especially you Hello Kitty unless the Boss makes me treat you LOL.....Sick Call is now closed.

The Mungadai Way


Your new knife has been here for a few days now and someone on the team has it and it's not me..... Follow the bread crumbs and you will have your new or by now used knife. Good luck Voodoo.

Waiting Patiently, with a Twitch




We're all waiting for Voodoo to get his box. First, we can't wait for him to stop asking if, after every day's mail run, he got a box. His hands are twitching, he's developed a slight facial tic, and he's mumbling incessantly to himself. Not drooling yet, but I'm sure that's coming if the box doesn't arrive soon. Of course, all of that is perfectly understandable if the box in question contains a Relentless knife.
Voodoo is showing the pictures that Mr. Certo sent him like a proud Papa showing off the pictures of his newly arrived bundle of joy.
On reflection, who wouldn't?
