Andrew Z. Luder (SSG) flew the Gadsden flag from his wrecker during the invasion of Iraq.

Andrew write, “I was battalion recovery NCO for the 122nd Combat Engineer Battalion of the South Carolina National Guard, attached to the 3rd Armored Cavalry Regiment during the first year of Operation Iraqi Freedom.”

Gadsden flag with the First Air Cavalry in Iraq

Joe Belsha of the 1st Air Cavalry Brigade e-mailed me this picture. He writes, “This flag generally hangs over my bed in my room here in Iraq, but I have taken it out on missions with me a couple times to get some ‘Combat flight time.’ Here’s a photo op over a rural area near Baghdad. I’m in the backseat, and had a willing copilot hold the flag up front for me.”

Is that the coolest thing, or what? Joe added, “Sorry I couldn’t get a better quality shot!” Hah. This is fantastic! Thanks for sending it, Joe!
