GENERATION KILL: Deleted Conversations, Ray & Brad

Sorry for the semi-poor quality! My HD PVR wasn’t recording and I was ready to throw it out the window. Instead, I had to do it with my camera which is why you hear birds chirping at one point. oh well can’t be tamed

“It’s like ‘over the counter’.”
“You mean ‘off the shelf’.”
“Yeah, I said that.”
“No, you didn’t.”
“Yeah, I did, but I used a poor choice of words.”

Hee! There’s nothing not to love in this entire scene.

In Colbert’s vehicle, the  Mark-19 jammed again—as it has in the two previous engagements. Hasser, who’s manning the weapon, screams, “Shit! Shit! Shit!” and pounds the roof of the Humvee, trying to unjam it. He lets out a half-crazed scream. “Raaah!

Colbert shouts up to him, “Walt! You’re losing control of yourself. Shut the fuck up and take a deep breath.”

“This goddamn gun!” Hasser shouts. His voice cracks. “It’s a piece of shit!”

“Walt, you know I like you a lot,” Colbert says, trying to calm him. “But it’s not going to help if you lose control of your emotions. We just don’t have enough LSA to keep it lubed properly. There’s nothing we can do about it.” He adds, “I’m sorry I had to yell at you.”

GenKill Ships

Okay, I know the popular ships. Brad, Ray, Nate, and Walt-I know their mix of ships. I know about Pappy/Rudy, Qtip/Christeson, and even some Gunny and Doc Bryan ships.

But what about the other guys? Are there ships that no one talks about? Do the others even have people they’re shipped with?

Lilley? Garza? Chaffin? Trombley?

Other characters whose names I can’t remember because I’m waiting in line at Walmart?

Any thoughts, theories, or opinions on ships about the characters we never really hear about?

[If you have an obscure ship you wanna talk about while remaining anonymous, you can send me an anon ask and I’ll bring it up here.]

Nate/Walt is my fav rarepair. I usually lump them in with the OT4, but I like them as a pair too. (they’d also look REALLY good together if you catch my drift)

Patterson/Barrett is the most obscure GK pairing I can think of.
