Godspeed
Ah, the proven highly effective A-10 “Warthog” I was working at an AF base as a civilian when they were first deployed. While designated as a “tank killer”, I am sure they do just as well against koranimals.
Tell me again or explain to me: Just exactly how does this potus manage to be their chief? How does he begin to identify with them or understand them?
These are the true Americans…Men and Women who lay their lives on the line to help and assist those who are oppressed and require aid. No questions asked, no second thoughts, no regrets. God I love all my brothers and sisters in the armed forces. God Bless you all and return home safely and with the thought that those who are currently serving and who have served in times past keep you in our hearts and prayers.
God, I love these heroes.
Get them out of that shit hole and let the muzzies kill each other.
I don’t want to see one more soldier die for these goat fuckers.
Could you imagine it we had had the A-10 back during WW II it would have made scrap metal out of those german tiger tanks
Those A-10s used to fly in formation over my house every day. I miss seeing them, but the politicians closed their base.
These men and women are the best this country has, i salute them and love them.
You people have the support of the majority in this great country, always feel proud, and continue to fight tyranny, we have your back.
And you have ours, Thank You.

Kid: Heya mister … gonna kill your son in 20 years.
Marine: Keep on, keeping on, future of Afghanistan.
Beautiful pix! May God bless them and protect them from the satanic jihadi in the WH!!
I woulda had to ask them to redo that dust off in the first 4 shots so I could get the shutter speed correctly sorted.
Also woulda turned my back so he coulda squished that tiny future suicide bomber.
My friend oversees the weapons loading on warthogs. What’s up Mr. Toad-e?!
God bless all our troops.
I just wanted to thank you for posting these pics and also for the War Porn.
I do not know anyone in the military. I feel its my duty to watch videos and look at the pics…nd most importantly to teach my 15 y/o what a real hero is. He was only 5 when we went to war and i have made it my mission to teach him about the young men and women who go willing to fight for our freedoms..Thankfully he doesnt think sports or movie stars are hero’s …to him our troops are the ultimate heros…god bless them all….
