@sadrcitysocialclub, I was at Falcon most of my time there in 2006, I did a little time at FOB Kalsu. Here are some Images of FOB Falcon both while it was blowing up and after. 10 October 2006 These photos are through my NVG's about 17k away on MSR Tampa. My Small Kill team was set up for the night when we saw this plum of smoke and called it in because we thought another unit was getting lit up on ASR Bug. Our support tried to call it up it the company but it was dead air, they tried Task Force next, just dead air. They eventually spaced themselves out enough to get a signal through to Kalsu and that's when we found out what was going on. That day was on odd one for Indirect fire because we had way more than normal, 13 had come in by the time we left on Patrol. Eventually, one hit the AHA (Ammo Holding Area) and that was all she wrote. It blew up for about 8 hours. No one was hurt at any point. At the time CNN was reporting that the FOB was being evacuated and numerous causality's were being reported, typical. I would like to add that the heavy Indirect fire also correlated with an influx of new interpreters. Coincidence? Maybe, but I doubt it.
We were in the center building and the blast blew doors off, blew windows out, in once case it blew a door off and onto the next building.
