Above is a picture I took in Petra, Jordan in 2013. Below is a slide show that includes some of my favorite photos that I've taken from the countries I've visited in both military and civilian capacities: Iraq, Afghanistan, Egypt, Israel, Jordan, Morocco and Ecuador 2005-2013. 

Left: 20-year-old Private First Class Spencer Case  as a military photojournalist (beneath those hideous BCGs I'm wearing). Right: 31-year-old Spencer Case as a philosophy graduate student.
