A-10 Hog pics from Brad Z:

These are shots of an A-10 that came home despite considerable damage.

Pics of a Hog that just refused to go down. An airman wrote: "I saw
this plane coming in a few hours ago,
and we were overjoyed to watch it come home and land." The last picture
is one of the pilot (the female in the photo). Evidently, the damage was
the result of her attempts to parallel park the Hog.

You should see what she did to the Iraqis. This damage occured was on
"Uncle Tommy's House of Pain Tour" (Gen. Franks) of Baghdad, the day we went
for a drive in Baghdad (first time). I think it was a truly great manuever.
I do not think that the press or anyone for that matter have realized how
potent are armed forces are today. The difference from the Gulf War to
today is absolutely remarkable.
