Al Amarah-Another Brick in the Wall

Has anyone got a photo of the 'The Wall' that existed in the IRT Shack at Al Amarah? Alot of SH/LH crews, Medics and Force Protection guys and girls lived in that part of the camp throughout its existence...some great banter/graffiti/quotes was suitably appended.

The mural of the Sea King being underslung by the Mighty Wokka was mine, I'd love a pic of that if anyone has one. Can swap you for a photo of a Sea King being underslung.
Used to be the only way to get one over 100Kts

Mr Wokka

Have a couple of pictures of the Chinny assisting the mighty King (Mk 4 in most cases) in the underslung mode, the earliest of which was on Purple Star (Helmet) in 95. Ironically the A/Capt of the Sea King was a Crab....bless him.
As for 100kts, been there a few times...but hey they've only gone and given us Carson.....next step hyperspeed
