You can go to the top left corner of this fourm post and there is a icon for photo help. See if this will help you out. If not and you want you can e-mail me the photos and I will load them for you. I would suggest that you download them to your gallery. From there you can post them to the forum page.

Here is a couple from me threw out my career, 1989 to present!
This is what the Texas Army National Guard does the best!! Just joking. This was taken when I first joined the Guard in 98' at Ft. Wolters, Tx at our yearly rifle range. Boy was I tired, up at 5 AM, and out all day in the Texas August heat!
This was taken at NTC (Ft. Irwin, CA) back in 1993. I was just about to repair the ISU(Integrated Sight Unit) in this vehicle.
This was taken at NTC also. It was very dusty out in the "Dust Bowl."
This was taken at the Damam Port in Saudi Arabia during the first Gulf War. Thats my Section Chief thinking he's all that with the big "GUN!"

Great Pics Pete. I was at Camp Swift as An Air Force Security Police, Grounds Combat Readiness Center (GCRC). Half my Unit went over. The Nam Vets were left behind to instruct all the Reserve SP's Who got orders over. We refreshed their Air Base Ground Defense Force training. Those were the days.

Hi, Herc. You were in the Philippines? BTW, out of curiosity (hope you could enlighten me), what's an OIF? For a while there, I thought you also participated in the annual RP-US military maneuvers called Balikatan.

OIF means Operation Iraqi Freedom. Correct me if I'm wrong.
Althought I am not in service, I do have some pics of me during my ROTC training.

Althought I'm not in the military, I am military in blood (yup, my grandfather is in the Philippine Navy, now inactive duty. My father has been the Corps Commander of his ROTC [Army]),I inherited it all from them.
So here's some of my outdoor activities I participated in our school

Here I am wielding an M-16A1. It was our Advance General Tactical Inspection (
AGTI). I was part of the fieldstrippers team (disassemble and assemble of the M-16). It so happens that I've disassembled it in 10 seconds and assembled in 22 seconds due to an error

.

I really love that ballistic helmet!

Here I am in a corvette, the BRP Artemio Ricarte. On my back is an AA gun (forgot what caliber it is) . I have lots of fun playing with the 40mm AA gun. It so happens that I have my cam with me, I began detail shooting as reference for those ship modelers. The good thing is, our Corps Commander treat me with great honor because I was in charge of photographing the entire activity! Cool! Ref pics and many more blessings #:-) ! BTW, the shipboarding was done just this early in the morning and right now, it's still fresh in my mind, the salty seas and the movement of the craft.

I don't have many photos of myself in uniform. Here are a couple of shots from "the good old days..."
First pic, 19-year old PFC Kerr newly transferred from the 32nd AADCOM to the 2nd Armored Division (Forward) in January 79. If you look closely on the desk, you can see a few models behind the tape recorder. I had just bought a new camera and took a few self-portraits.
Here's SP4 Kerr getting ready to leave the 2nd AD(Fwd). BG Armstrong has just pinned the slim and shaggy-haired youth with his first Army Commendation Medal.

Well, I've been thinking it over whether or not to include a PG-13 type photo, but I think this pretty much shows the typical for my old unit. This was taken before boarding a train after we loaded our tanks on the flatcars for the trip to the border camp. Rail - load was hard work, hence the attitude.
Also note the woodland camo on the M113 based vehicle ( could be a 901 or 106) was not sprayed. We only had one or two spray guns and they always wanted things done ASAP.... if you didn't get the gun, brush paint!
Oh yeah, I am the guy on the left exhaling coffin nail fumes.

Here is me in 1994 with HHD 324 FSB, 24th ID Mech in Dammam Port, Saudi Arabia.

I know, it's a picture of a picture. Annoying, huh?

Hey Jason,
That's an interesting choice of uniforms you guys have in that first photo. Were you trying to blend in with all the enemy tourists? :-) I am sorry, just couldn't help myself.
