People and Places Pics from a recent mission

These are some pics I took on the mission I just got back from. Ten days in Bak District, Khost, Afghanistan. It was a pretty crazy mission. Almost got exploded twice in three days... w00t! Anyways, what do y'all think?




Two of the SGTs in my fire team overwatching a town below.



Afghan NDS (their CIA) para-military guys doing a weapons showdown for their Commander.



Two Afghan men 'perching' on a wall. This is how the Pashtun people pretty much always sit.



A stairwell I enjoyed... looked very medieval



In Afghanistan (and Iraq I believe) they have cargo trucks called "jingle" trucks due to the chains and charms they attach on every inch of vertices that make the truck have a jingling sound as it drives. This is, as far as I can tell, their take on a jingle bicycle.
