New Citizens

Posted By Blackfive • [July 26, 2005]

McQ at QandO has a great post about our new citizens - soldiers serving in Iraq are sworn in...McQ links to several articles which feature some pictures of the ceremony.

Here are a few more I found that, I believe, didn't make it into the articles.  All photos taken by Sergeant Lynne Steely (click on the thumbnails for larger version of photo):
