Thanksgiving is almost upon us, a much needed time for family, friends, and copious amounts of food. But the conversation here at *The War Zone* doesn't have to end over the holiday, so it's time for a special turkey day edition of Bunker Talk!

We can shmooze about this incredible command photo:

Or what about this Bo105 making an insane rescue:

Then there is this impressive video of a C-17 landing on Yakima Training Center's remodeled Selah Airstrip, dumping out a HIMARS launcher, and then taking back to the skies after a volley of fire is unleashed:

We can even talk about the banner photo at the top of this article, it is of a fascinating bunker indeed!

Once again, this is an entirely open exercise, so let's get after it before the tryptophan settles in.

Welcome to Bunker Talk!
