#1 They all look like dirtbags, don't they?

#3 Interesting. That's a 101st patch, a scoped AK, and Iraqi Army cammies. Scissors in front, presumably for undoing plastic ties, or perhaps the guy's a combat lifesaver and those are for cutting clothes off wounded.
And it's a raid in Baghdad where, if I hear right, Americans aren't being active.

#4 Actually, he looks like a pudge dirtbag.

I don't think it's a 101st patch.

#5 Put a wife beater t-shirt on the guy and he could be (probably is) a relative of the Khalid (abu Rico Suave) Sheik Mohammed.
