I am mounted on a ZPU 14.5 mm Anti Aircraft gun me and an eager 82nd Airborne trooper assembled from parts from multiple cache recoveries. We got it to fire a few times at the range, but it kept going down. When shooting sideways instead of in the air, the 1,000 lb gun would scoot back 6 inches on every burst.

One of my interpreters and me. We looked like brothers. The interpreter is the good looking one.

Harsh snow fall, collapses all of our tents, Camp Harriman Orgun.

Two Personal Under Custody (PUKS) One was captured by Afghan forces trying to enter Pakistan with an address book with names of those on  the wanted list. After my first interrogation, I discovered the second PUK who did not live far from us had given the first PUK the address book. We had to wait for an operation order to go through before we could snatch the second PUK, but time was of the essence so we could cross examine them before sending the first PUK up to headquarters. I took a
break went the chow and there was the second PUK when I got back. Just so happens a couple of my local interpreters are good ole fashion gun toting country boys. They snatched him up without my permission. What a shame.

Third Group Hummer set up. They had a .50 Cal in the turret along with an AT4 hand fired MAL strapped
behind the gunner for easy access. But they also had an additional machine gun mount for the guy riding
shotgun to man. Mounted in the picture is a 240B. It replaced the M60. Marines call it a 240G. A
variation of the weapon has been mounted in Bradley Fighting Vehicles for some time, called a 240C.
All are really Belgium FN MAG 58’s. I test fired five MAG 58’s against 5 PIGS. All five pigs went down
after about 10,000 rounds. Not one MAG went down.
