Camera 1

New in July - From Cummings' Camera

Part One 11/5/07 - 1/31/07

(Posted in July, but taken in Nov 06 - Jan 07)

PFC Branden Cummings 1-29-07

PFC Branden Cummings was killed in action on Feb. 14, 2007.

The pictures on this page were taken from his camera after it was returned to his family. They give us the unique opportunity to look through the lense of Branden's camera and to see what he saw... both the Iraqi landscape and life with his brothers in the platoon.

The photos are posted in approximate order of the time they were taken, starting in November, 2006 all the way through a few days before his death in February 2007. Because of the large number of pictures, they are posted on two seperate pages. This is part one. Be sure to look at PART TWO.

The photo on the right is the last one taken of Branden before his death.

Please help caption these photos. Names, explaintory captions, and corrections are appreciated. Please send them along WITH THE PICTURE NUMBER via the contact us link or using my personal email if you have it. Thanks! ~Debra
