Asmodeus's 7 Month tour to Afghanistan
 

Ok since i got your attention, i was thinking of putting pictures here showing where i was and what i went through none of it will be sick or unprossional. just seeing if you guys would like to see them before i go thru them and take the time to upload them.

I think that would be sweet... I would enjoy looking at the pics... good or bad. :smile:

I think it would be interesting. Go for it.

I would like to see them as well.

I would like to see them.

Ok im uploading some now some i can show you guys and gals, but then there are some that i can't due to operational reasond.
