Op All-American Lightning (1)

Show-of-force / media-stunt airdrop with the 82d AD at Al Asad AB, Iraq in early 04. And, yep, Geraldo was even there (of course). Whoop-dee-doo.

Some of that darker haze in the middle of the pic was from #2's flare launch (false indication) which happened right after the doors were opened - I don't think the jumpers standing in the door had ever seen anything like that before!
