      Re: US Special Force Group - ODA squad in Afghanistan

      Good pics, however from my POV there's two little niggles which just catch in my mind. One is the use of AKs. The reference pics you posted (those that are positively ID'd as SF) all clearly show M4A1 SOPMODs in use but not AKs. That last reference pic I've never seen before, but I'd be more inclined to view that as a member of the CIA's SAD rather than SF, hence the AK (as they were using a batch of AKs from one of the former Sov bloc countries if I recall). The second niggle is the use of civvie clothing by Rikilopiccolo, again the reference pics clearly show SF wearing DCU (with SPEAR fleeces or civvie hiking jackets), whereas SAD generally wore civvies rather than camo. Yes, there are the odd pics of SF in full civvies, however these tend to be staged pics away from the front/action.

      Other than that, there's a good attention to detail (with just these niggles catching in my mind), and a good choice in location for the pics as well.
