One of the reasons Bret enters these races (besides the tee shirt!) is it helps break up the week. The races are generally held on Friday or Sat-or both.

VIP tourguide
Some DynCorp people came for some kind of inspection last week and Bret spent the day showing them around.
Companion Helicopter
Although DynCorp employees also fly on military helicopters and planes, DynCorp has its own fleet of soviet era helicopters. When one has to fly there is always a companion one that flies with it in case one has 'mechanical problems' and has to land the companion chopper can land and pick up the people.
Camels, People and Horses
It's hard to see but there are camels and people and horses at this watering hole. (Taken from the helicopter)
Inside the chopper
Inside one of the helicopters that Bret took to get to the other nearby bases. He says he was just about to put on his protective armor...
5K + rocket attack
Friday, September 30 6:30 AM. 30 seconds before Bret crossed the finish line in a 5K run the rocket siren went off. He took this picture, finished the race (best time ever) and hit the ground.
