Now in Kirkuk


I made it into Kirkuk last night on my first ride on a CH-47 Chinook, which completes my checklist of military transport helicopters here in theater - Blackhawk, Chinook, and Pave Low. I'm hoping to get on an V-22 Osprey and C-17 Globemaster sometime before I leave to complete the full circuit of aircraft. I'll hopefully be leaving again in a few hours on to my next location on my Iraq Tour.

The photo above is a CH-47 Chinook, similar to the one I took from FOB Speicher (Tikrit) to Kirkuk.
