Taking a week long vacation at my mothers house with my son enjoying the July 4th holiday I have had time to go through lots of old family photographs. Most of what I am looking through is far older than this blast from my past circa 1997. This is a young SSGT. Guttenberg on assignment at Incirlik Air Base Turkey. At the time I was supporting Operation Northern Watch which was a multinational U.S. lead expeditionary force patrolling and enforcing the northern no-fly zone over Iraq put in place after the first Gulf War in 1991. My equipment was a pair of Nikon F4 bodies and a healthy assortment of prime and zoom lens's. Those F4's were heavy and virtually indestructible! I loved them and wish I had one still today for my collection.
