Coolpoisons war baax I though it was something serious

I think carada baydhabo aa ka gaduudan

Found what some american soldiers have written about gobolka galgaduud during their stay civil war in somalia, it was the SNF vs USC in galgaduud . anyhow they talk about how red the land was .. Its a perfect name for that region . galgaduud

iyoThis photo shows two heavy technicals parked in the bush outside of a village called Balenbale in the SNF enclave about 20 kilometers from the Ethiopian frontier. The vehicle on the left is an old Mercedes Benz. It is painted a medium blue, but heavily coated in the red dust of the region. The roof of the cab has been removed to allow free rotation of the twin 40 mm AA cannon mounted in the bed. One of my men, Staff Sergeant David Davis, stands in the bed contemplating the best way to surreptitiously disable the cannon while nobody is watching.
The vehicle on the right is a Pegaso, which I believe is an Italian make. It also mounts a twin 40 mm AA cannon in the bed. The vehicle is painted in a light tan-yellow, very close to the U.S. desert yellow camouflage color. The reddish-brown spots and stripes are the result of heavy use in the bush and a heavy coat of dust. The front and sides of the truck are covered in small horizontal stripes from years of negotiating paths though the thick thorn bushes common all over Somalia.
Got nuthing but loove for my red landsNote the narrow red-brown streaks all over the lower hull. These were caused by travel through the bush, when dust and dirt laden thorn branches would drag across the hull and leave these long stains. The powdery red soil of the region is easy to see in this photo.

Viva the SNF heroes
loyal to dawlada

Re: Galgadud
Loyal to what dawlad?? what are you talking about, Reer Caabudwaaq were defending themselves from the USC, the same way they defended themselves from SSDF, this has nothing to do with any dawlad, and certainly not the KAcaan who neglected Caabudwaaq to the fullest.
i know you love the former government but dont distort the Facts
