Funny guy this guy. He followed me around and insisted I take his photo. I loved his smile – such a friendly chap. I also loved the fact that he was wearing military clothing but giving a “peace” gesture. Either that or declaring that he’d won something.

A fire team from the 172nd Stryker Brigade Combat Team, Ft. Wainwright, Alaska, sit in an over watch position atop a house in the outskirts of Mosul, Iraq in 2006. The threat of snipers forced these soldiers to sit on chairs to reduce their silhouettes and their possibility of being targeted, while covering other soldiers moving from building to building on the ground looking for terrorists and possible caches of weapons. Mosul, Iraq Circa 2006

The driver of a Stryker armored vehicle, from the 172nd SBCT, Ft. Wainwright, Alaska, takes a moment to rest in the shade of a eucalyptus tree, out of his extremely warm driver’s hatch. Secure Iraqi Army outposts like this one in the outskirts of Mosul, Iraq, give soldiers a chance to relax while patrolling all over the city. Mosul, Iraq Circa 2005

Captured at the airshow in Langley, VA. The F-4 Phantom used to be my all time favorite airplane growing up, it was so cool to see one of the last few flight worthy F-4’s in this heritage flight formation. Trailing the F-4 is an F-22 Raptor and an F-15 Strike Eagle (lower plane).

In the 11th hour, on the 11th month and 11th day each year the US celebrates, honors and remembers it’s Veteran’s of War… / Last year in an attempt at balancing the power to creatively express my peaceful self, as a previous anti-war activist who had never truly delved into the depths of ‘casualties of war’, learning even more that they went beyond the physical or deceased sense of the term. Creating a series called PEACE CANDLES that began with the importance of our votes, I was soon inspired by the real reasoning behind some of our holidays. This series brought on an amazing series of collaborations, but the Veteran’s Remembrance (III) one had to be the most profound of these experiences, as it inspired this poetry and a whole new way of looking at ‘Warriors’... Singing for Heroes Unsung heroes of time and eternity gone by, / upon eagle’s wings please hear harmony’s cry; I know of the courage in your brave, purple heart’s, / the valor that runs deep through all body parts; No medals or ribbons could suffice true zeal / of facing the devil, declaring “NO DEAL!” Senses denatured to the ills of humankind, / focusing on ‘cause’ without losing one’s mind; War, we were taught, is freedoms price tag, / for waving or planting the colors of our flag; Laying claim to faith and dignity to rites / for victim nations, to empower from plights; A noble choice to risk one’s life and limb, / while ignorance decides whether to sink or swim; My promise to you from this moment on, / your memories heard in ephiphenomenon; With love and honor, respectfully I’ll close - / each dawn sound the bugle, each eve with a rose. TK Rosevear 11/11/07 Sound the Bugle by Bryan Adams / There were Roses written by Tommy Sands are the two pieces of music that inspired the last line of this poem, and each day I hear the first song, while each evening I hear the latter. In remembrance of all Veteran’s of all wars and to all those still walking with the memories and all who have been lost… Peace Candles III includes interviews with soldier’s requests on how they wish to be remembered… /

My Son and I went to this little Military Museum just off the Beale Air Force Base in Norhtern California last spring. As we were walking around enjoying everything we rounded this area and down the hall along the wall was all these Military Boots. I stopped dead in my tracks, it was such a strong feeling there. After a while of taking it all in I took a few shots. Ashby ( flyfish70 ) didn’t seem to get why it bothered me so and I thought about it for a while and thought maybe it is because he is still wearing his and I am so glad and proud that he is. / Hope you enjoy the photo and thank you for stopping by!!!

In July 1724 General George Wade (1673-1748) was sent to Scotland on a military mission for George I. In the continuing uncertainty after the 1689 and 1715 Jacobite Risings, he was to ‘inspect the present situation of the Highlanders’ and to ‘make strict inquiry into the last law for disarming the Highlanders’. He identified that the Highlands were ready to rise up and was appointed commander in Chief of the North of Scotland. He build roads so that he could move his troops quickly and put down rebellions. One of these roads runs along the south side of Loch Ness. This was Fraser country and they fought on both sides in the Battle of Culloden that was to take place in a few years after Wades work was complete. They fought on both sides so that they were on the winning side and would keep their land and title. Unfortunately Lord Lovat who chose the losing side was beheaded in the Tower of London and a memorial to him can be found in Boleskine Gravyard on the South side of Loch ness. The south side of Loch Ness is not the main road to Inverness from Fort William but it is the most beautiful. Even quicker because there is less traffic and more opportunities to overtake. You also get a better view of loch ness from this road.
