this has little or nothing to do with vietnam. found some pictures on the internet that i liked a lot.



this is a picture of a daisy cutter. it weights 15,000 pounds, is droped from a cargo plane cause it's too heavy and clears out an area of about three miles (according to bbc). we dropped 11 of them on iraq in the first war and a few in afghanistan. yee haw!



this is a picture of a leaflet we dropped in the first iraq war depicting a daisy cutter bomb. the translation says, 'flee and save your life, or remain and meet your death.'





this is a picture of one of the leaflets we dropped in iraq before the second war.

lieutenant general charles horner was the commander of the air force at the time the 11 daisy cutters were dropped. he was born in iowa and flew air missions over northern vietnam.

i am unaware if coalition forces know of his whereabouts but here is a picture:
