I'm surprised Comms were still working; It would suck if mysterious aliens, sand people, zombies, or ancient desert evil decide to attack then.

Thats crazy!

Great video, thanks to your dedication I got to show my wife what I have been trying to explain to her. I never took a video in one that bad in fear of the sand braking it.

[Battlecorps101]

Holy fuck!! Iv'e never seen that shit before, thats amazing. It just kept creeping up on the base until it swallowed it whole! And it was so dark too, as if it were night, amazing.

[LostProphecy777]

I remember those storms....we had to cut off all missions because the helos woudn't fly in that shit. Good times....well some of them. SEMPER FI!

[cplwoodsusmc]

And yes, it really does get that dark... we had to put on our NVG's on the towers, just to see eachother...

[cplwoodsusmc]

I was on post for that one... on tower 18 on the far west-side of the base... storm sucked, but goggles and scarf helped... Visibility was fucked though...

OMG I can just imagine what the 1930s dust bowls were like!

[loribit85]

Impressive! That sand must be close to dust to screen the sun so much.
