Thanks for sharing Rav. FWIW, tell your guys to pull their barrels back from the shooting ports so they aren't sticking out for the world to see, and tell that one guy in the second to last pic to quit using his weapon for a cane and get the barrel out of the dirt.

I have often been impressed by how beautiful much of Afghanistan is. There are places in Wardak that would be fantastic ski resorts, a shame really.
