Short Fuse

Baquba, Iraq

Coalition forces capture enemy grenades like this every day. There can be a temptation for people unfamiliar with munitions to pull a pin and toss it, like fireworks. Some of these grenades come with ZERO-delay fuses. The instant the spoon is released, the grenade will explode.

Please give the gift of independent reporting. Your gift goes far and is used for transport, lodging, living expenses, satellite communications and for repairing and replacing gear that fails due to the rigors of the battlefields.  Millions of people, in more than a hundred countries, see these photos and words.  Your generosity goes very far, and is greatly appreciated.
