I went to the National Mall after work. The Airforce and Border Patrol had displays set up, with tanks, helicopters, jets, and mobile rocket launchers. Being the violent, opressive american I am, I had to see them, and take some pictures.

There is something eerie about framing a picture of a high calibre tank with the American Capitol Building as the back drop.

I'll put up links to the pictures when theyre ready.
