It looks like the badges on their arms are in the shape of hourglasses with a line heading down into the bottom half.


Yes, the badges looks similar to the special army unit in control of the "Time Tunnel", the 60s TV show.

Screen Shot

Here's a shot from the video, 'enhanced' to give the most definition to the ghost character...

fwiw, this image appears when the camera is on the road with no objects or trees in front of him except the humvee, whose brake lights you can see as the green flashes

it coudl just be interference or such, but I thought it was worth having a peeksee. (So blame me, not poor BB)

Something that makes me think that it is not a fluke is that it is in that section of the vid about 5 or 6 times with the camera looking in different directions.

Two more screenshots

Two more shots from the video, this time of a flag on the back of the humvee at around 04:05
I can't tell if the flag is ASA, USA, or otherwise.

Partial transcript of ambush video

I spent some time today trying to transcribe the audio of the ambush video, and here it is. It's still not totally complete though, as I couldn't make out some of what was said.

Google Map of FireFight Location

Here is a goggle map of the Location for the firefight "sparks" on sparkeye 44° 34' 7.5" -104° 42' 23.4" which is within a half mile or so of Devils Tower (already identified in the first night vision film) . The name of the road is Devils Tower National Monument Road 10.

It might happen every night but tonight the "convoy" of "enemy triangles on redeye circled around the area before stopping. At the same time there were two new triangles at -96 and 41. (bottom right) but they moved to the SE and are gone again.

Wayne Cotton Rolls (who is in the Winnebago from Canada) is about 30 miles to the south east of Devils Tower now as well.

The Yeibichai train makes that same circle every time it reaches that spot, continues to the northeast until it reaches about MT/SD line, then turns around, and heads back to SW WY/UT border without making the circle, as the path is slightly further ot the northwest.

It doesn't happen every night, per se, because the length of time for the train to make one full trip isn't as clockwork as the rest of the map (say, the F/18s, who make their appearance every 12 hours around 9 am/pm PST). They're more on a 28 hour schedule, though that is far from exact, it's just not a multiple of 8 as far as I can tell. I suppose I can track the progress at some point to see how long a loop from DT circling to DT circling is - bu tI don't know if it's particularly valuable at this point.

*scratches head* I guess that's been discussed to death in IRC but not on the boards. I am slacking.

As for Wayne, he's still at the coordinates for Mt Rushmore (roughly 43.86, -103.46), as was stated in his last blog entry. He's actually not from Canada, he's just visited there for awhile.

And hi, welcome to the Tooman boards Smile

Rangers Video Preview - Steal page from thermal coordinates

Thank you.

I noticed on the the rangers preview http://www.cbs.com/nuts

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Login: rangers

Password: jerichonuts
for tonight they are planning on stealing one page from Beck's binder with "data from an aerial radiation survey" which I assume would show the location of the buried bomb. Do atom bombs give off radio frequencies as well?

Does that show up on any of the maps? I never see anything on thermeye.

Also there is a little "ad" prior to the preview in which they tell anyone with a Sprint Phone that they can get hints to "follow the bomb" by using the keyword Jericho on their phone. oops must belong on another thread.

Yes, they did in fact take a sheet from the binder. Specifically, it was the one page that contained the info regarding Hawkin's bomb. The aerial survey wouldn't neccessarily 'show' the location of the bomb per se, but would show hotspots that would need to be checked out. One of them would contain the bomb.

Since I don't have a Sprint phone, I don't know what the video's there contain, but I would assume it's the same one that CBS releases to the fans (the password protected link from above), plus the regular next episode preview.

There has been an ongoing ariel of the map on this link...and last night on the show, they talked about a hard copy of the ariel recon with heat signatures. Has anyone got a screenshot of the page that was taken from Becks binder? We could check the coordinates on the page to see if any match up to the game map.
Just a thought.

I've been wondering if that ghost image is telling us something. Whats mssng? 2 "eyes" are missing and they are replaced with stars...stars like from the barcode? 23 stars that overlap=23 bombs?. 2 mssng that didn't go off...2 being shown now. AND Does the ghost image look like its the bottom portion of the forked tree?

This game is destroying more braincells than beer ever did!

*sorry about the double post...the last one was an afterthought and I couldn't figure how to put them together.
