thanks for the salute!
love this site.
are those Polidori's photos?
The linking site – Military Photos – has either temporarily shut down the Chernobyl link, or has removed the photos entirely (the specific forum won't open, at least today). But as far as whether those images are Polidori's... I don't think they are. But for Polidori's Chernobyl, see here.
Check out http://www.kiddofspeed.com/ for lots of photos about Chernobyl. Quite unbelievable.
Thanks for the great blog.

Thanks again! -
