This site does *not* have the Rumsfeld Gates Seal of Approval and we doubt he knows (or cares) it exists! Though we *have* seen the Official Army Blog Training Brief, and we know that the *Counter-Intel* people know it exists... [Waving vigorously] "Hi fellas! How are ya?" However, we *do* know the blog is read at the White House. Because we got invited there. Kewl, huh? Read Less
I'd have to say that those were row upon row of PC's and peripherals in storage, either waiting to be issued, or waitinf to be recycled. They are stored in a reinforced concrete facility, most likely a munitions bunker of some sort,, perhaps ebem part of a command post. Hard to tell. Gowever, it's been unused for it's intended purpose for awhile as there are paint peelings overhead. Fown the center are sheets of paper detailg what each section of computers is assigned to, or came from, or are intended for, etc. Inventory sheets, in other words.

Mike,
Well I have to wonder just what's up with all the armour giys anyway. Seems to me they are all a bunch of wannabe sailors. They speak the lingo, you know.
Turret. Hatch. Main Gun. Hull. Bow. Bulkhead. Sponson. Aft. Oberhead. Compartment. Periscope.
The vocabulary goes on and on, but you just can't use the word "starboard" or "port". Oj wait... you DO use gun port. My bad..... Heh. :)
I guess denial is not just a river in Egypt, eh?
No, the "tank" (so-called because the crates were marked "water tank" when the sekrit machines were shipped about) was originally called a Landship, because it was developed under the direction of the First Lord of the Admiralty... Winston Churchill.
Or something like that.
Feh. It's an assault gun -- an overgrown ASU-85.
Oh, you want to know specifically what it is? Sorry, I'm a grunt. I think we should put C-4, det cord, and blasting caps on it. It's too heavy to bring back for the S-2 to mis-identify...!
Fire for effect!
FIRE IN THE HOLE!!!
