I don't know how they conduct operations in the field and couldn't comment on that. I will say FOB Ghazni is a horrible place to be, especially when people are shitting in the showers for starters. The US Army is either unaware, or doesn't care, how the Polish Army runs the LZ there. US Army a/c, flown by US Army aviators.....and the Polish take priority coming and going from the FOB. If you're manifested don't worry about it, a pick up or 3 will arrive the moment a flight touches down and unload Polish soldiers who will then load up, leaving the Americans standing on the LZ. It is more frustrating because they have their own aviation detachment in country.

When they arrived some comm gear was in place, they promptly built buildings around said comm gear and then began complaining that they could get cancer from it. It took months to resolve.

Sitting in chow one night, there was only water or boxed milk to drink. No worries. Well, the KBR guy came out with a cart filled with cases of Gatorade and soda. Polish soldiers eft the DFAC and returned a few minutes later, through the back door, with several friends. They walked up to the cart and took every case of drinks with them and then left the DFAC.

Americans sleep 8 to a b-hut, Polish 6 to a b-hut.....and then the Polish complain that there isn't enough room at the FOB.

Feces smeared on the walls in the latrines.

That's off the top of my head.
