2xvetran Posted July 20, 2010 Share Posted July 20, 2010 While in Iraq in 2003-2004 I had the pleasure of working with the Albanian Komando unit in Mosul. I thought I would post a few pics here. This is me and a counterpart with some of the Komandos at their HQ at the Mosul Airport. http://gmic.co.uk/uploads/monthly_07_2010/post-4139-127960019477.jpg.jpg] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A good man who taught me a lot about the Albanian Army. http://gmic.co.uk/uploads/monthly_07_2010/post-4139-127960037142.jpg.jpg] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2xvetran Posted July 20, 2010 Author Share Posted July 20, 2010 The Albanian Komando SSI, hat crest and National Colors that they gave me upon my departure. I was told that the Komandos don't allow many to receive their SSI, so I was very honored to receive these. http://gmic.co.uk/uploads/monthly_07_2010/post-4139-127960056749.jpg.jpg] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
