These pictures are incredible. "It's not the story of 2008, it's certainly not all stories, but as a collection it does show a good portion of what life has been like over the past 12 months. This is a multi-entry story, 120 photographs over three days. Watch for part 2 and part 3 tomorrow and the next day."

I highly recommend you check out the links:

part 1
part 2
part 3

yeah!

some are funny, some are amazing, but a lot are just plain sad. It makes you realize what a world you live in when the majority of the pictures representing your world are that of terror, death, and destruction.

If you actually read the captions, it said the marine had a close call and was unharmed.. Jesus christ.

The MoD article states that he was assigned to 1st Battalion The Rifles (at Beachley Barracks in Chepstow). They aren't commando.

Either you edited my post, and yours or I didn't read:

Photograph 5 in set 1?

It was a near miss...

But I think you edited your post to make me look bad. +1 for you if you did, really.
