The figure in the center is wearing a ball cap with my High School logo on it.

I bet that he wishes that he had a "Point Man" cap!

Them sidearm leg straps suck, bad for running around with or to draw your gun from. Rolling will prove to be a problem also. =)

You can always tell a rookie or a wannabe by the massive impractical thigh holsters! Whenever you get a copper pull you over and stride up with one of those and a pair of Oakleys you know you are in for it.

If the juxtaposition of the phrase "Enduring Freedom" with the violence implicit in the picture is intentionally ironic, nice one, it made me smile. :)

Ironic maybe - (and I'm guessing most folks know this) but that is the US's code name for the operation in Afghanistan.  I like it, "Road to Kabul" doesn't have quite the ring to it... Cap'n Jim

The style of the cover image reminds me of a war comic cover  . Not really the type of combat that comes to mind when I think of FoF.
