This picture has been doing the rounds of pro-insugency websites tagged with much hilarity "is this the stupidest army in the world?".
It purports to show a US soldier inserting a mortar in the wrong way round. We think it's a little too goofily posed to be true.
What do you think?
The Photo of a US Soldier loading a mortar bomb into it's tube is clearly a spoof observe the guy behind smiling. The stupid ones are those that actually believe that this is a serious photo. Mind you, there was a picture published in 1991/92 of the then defence minister Rifkind attempting such an act on Salisbury Plain..and he wasn't joking.

Definitely a spoof other wise the guy smiling at the back would be a blur as he tried to kill the fool about to kill them all!
