Country: | If u have the nerve, go look at this website... http://www.ogrish.com
It shows all sorts of trauma and dead combat victims...
They all look fake...
I have personally seen the horrors of war, and most of the time, the parts that are left over look like props from a horror movie...

Country: | Nice shots, BH! In April, the B-17 "Fuddy Duddy" will be visiting our museum. It will be the fourth B-17 that I have walked through!  This will be the first one that I will be taking my son to see. He is at about the right age now.
