Having Fun

I constantly have other Army and Marine soldiers turning in Iraqi weapons for me to cut up. I am the only person on base that is qualified to legally destroy weapons. It's not hard, I take a blow torch and cut through them so no one can use them ever again. I have to sign forms that I took control of the weapons, and if I don't completely destroy them and they were found being used by someone in the future, I would be in a lot of trouble. But before I put a blow torch to them I have fun...

Rifles took off insurgent in Baghdad

One of these rifles I am trying to take back to Colorado to put in the Colo National Guard State Headquarters building. It was produced in 1939 by the Nazi's. The Nazi eagle is stamped on the rifle in a few places with the symbol of where it was made which was in Berlin. (I really don't know a lot about guns, I have had to sit for hours on the internet researching all this.) One thing I found interesting was that the Nazi's produced this weapon for their military and it ended up here because the Nazi's trained the Iraqi army during WWII.
