These are some pictures that I took in the Recon area after the base had been under attack for a month or so. I lost my camera and all my photos on the morning of January 21, when the ammo dump blew and our tent was destroyed.

The rear entrance to our Recon bunker. Note the
destryoed sections of a 122mm rocket laying on the roof of the bunker. This 122mm rocket
hit the end of our bunker but no one inside was injured. A few of us had ruptured eardrums
from the concussion, but no other injuries.
