Picture of the flag Todd flew in Iraq on Christmas Day 2008 for his dad, Jack Ramsey. You can see the Al Faw Palace in the background.

This was taken onboard a Blackhawk helicopter we flew to FOB (Forward Operating Base) Taji, 30 Km North of Baghdad, February 2009


The famous crossed swords at one of Sadaam's parade grounds in downtown Baghdad April 2009. The second image is me at the base of the swords. The helmets on the ground are part of the statue and are Iranian helmets taken as trophies during the Iran - Iraq War during the 1980s.

This is from a memorial ceremony during 2005 in the parish church of Lavenham, England. I'm dressed in a WW II US Army Air Corps 1st Sgt uniform and I'm reading from the scroll of honor. This scroll listed the names of all the members of United States 487th Bombardment Group who died during WW II. The 487th flew B-17s from Lavenham Airfield during WW II.
