Each month we have to inventory our ammunition. Because I frequently go outside the wire, I have a full combat load. As I emptied it out, I looked at how many rounds there were and decided to take a picture.
 I think I could do something with this if I really tried, next time we do an inventory I'll be sure to work something out.
I think one of these days I'm going to follow my rifle around and chronicle its journey, where it goes and where I stick it. I kind of put a few items together and took a picture of that as well, mainly showing the combat load all lined up in a row.
 And then I tweaked the picture in photoshop. Ah, what am I saying? It's a little cheesey and actually a poor composition. I think I'll work on my photography skills a bit more and see what else I can come up with.
And then I'll take some more pictures.
