Kermit Date registered: Dec 1899 Location: Vehicle(s): | Up in smoke Here are a couple of pictures of a Canadian G that was hit by a suicide bomber on a motorcycle in Afghanistan today. Fortunately no one (except the bomber) was injured, but the G died an honorable death.

Those Canadian and NATO Forces are fighting just as hard of a battle in Afghanistan as the US and Coalition Forces in Iraq; but they're not getting any press coverage to speak of in the US. | ||

A soldier was in the back seat and he looked left only to see an rpg explode on his window The core of the rpg never entered through the armoured glass even though it did explode. I'm sure they are still cleaning his pants out. | ||
