Cpl Emminger standing in front of a baby fork lift (4,000 pounder).

Great guy, his wife was pregnant when we were deployed. She was a WM (woman Marine) and had the baby girl before he got back. I had the honor of meeting Miss Brittany Emminger just a week before her Daddy did. Man, I cannot believe that "baby bunny" is now 10 years old!

ASP #3 (Al Mishab) April or May 1991.

Here's a berm full of ammo destined for destruction. It was one of several berms, at one of 4 ASP's just for the Marines of the northern area. Multiple that for the Air Force, Army, and Navy and multiple that by the US, UK, French, and Arabians. There was a whole lot of ammo.

Sgt Owen and a family of refugees. They were Arabian (not the higher class Saudi Arabian) and were looking for food and water. They came in a dusty station wagon and just drove right up to us since we were along a major "road" to Kuwait. They let me take a picture, as long as Mom stayed hidden behind Dad.

"Dad" didn't speak any more english than "George Boosh!" which he proclaimed hands high, and "Saddam!" spit on the ground. Yeah, we gave him water and some MREs.

A Corporal from Rome, Georgia displaying two captured Russian rifles. Sorry, Phil Donahue, the Russians, did in fact supply arms to the enemy...

A hummer behind displays the "A" Allies symbol. I had marked my sea bag with a similar symbol a year before but that "A" stood for Artus. I was styling before it was cool...

These were some of the first hootches set up when our contingent (pulled from ASP#1) arrived at Khanjar (suppossedly Arabic for "Dagger"). Khanjar was a huge base of operations that included a medical section, supplies, and ammo all under the command of General Krulak. Years later he would rise to Commandant of the Marine Corps.

ASP #5 (Khanjar) January 1991.
