    Found on a Raid

    Well this is'nt really militaria but it is political so I hope I'm not breaking any rules.

    So heres the story:

    We did a Raid on a Anti-coalition newspaper factory , it was abandonded so we began looking for the usual... weapons, propaganda etc.... I found a whole stack of hand drawn pictures that would eventually wind up in print in the newspaper so I "liberated" a couple ( and also the paper with the illustration) we burned everything in the factory so this is a one of a kind item....pretty cool I think.I brought back tons of Iraqi stuff but I look at as junk, which made me think how many G.I's in WW2 thought the same thing.

    Moderators feel free to delete this if you think it violates the no-politics rule.

    A great piece. i am not sure if the forum section is the right one, but it has a place on the forum

    I would suggest... box up ALL your souvenirs... and look at them again in 20 years.

    I stupidly traded away all my souvenirs for German stuff when I was still in the Army and the couple of years that followed.

    Nowdays I would kill to get it all back.

    Dont trade or give any of it away... today its junk... in 20 years you will want it for the den.

    I agree. The oddest and most unexpected things turn out to be what nobody "bothered" to save.
