->> My son is in the process of enlisting in the Air Force. He's planning to become a SERE Specialist, so while doing the A.D.D. on the internet researching military stuff, I came across the portfolios of several military photographers. http://www.defenselink.mil/home/features/military_photographers/

I loved spending time looking at each of their work so I thought I'd share. Definitely some compelling and thought provoking stuff in there.

Enjoy!

Jody

->> A little more...

Here's a quote from that link that I find extremely inspiring:

"The assignment... simple. The objective... illusive. The cost... immeasurable. We are the men and women who go through great risks to get the shot. We extraordinary videographers and photojournalists train with the best, operate in the worst and get noticed the least. Our mission is to be there when history happens. Ever notice that photo or video clip in the news, book, or documentary? Well, someone had to be there. Someone had to get the shot. Someone had to tell the story. We are that someone."
