Afghanistan scrounge with pictures

[allhandsworking]

A friend left the Coast Guard reserves and joined the army so "he could go to Afghanistan"! I found these in my email folder from last year. He told me he had not seen a tree for a year other than some trees in town. I wonder how far this chap had to drive for this fire wood? My friend compared it to the stone age with Toyotas,AK47 and cell phones! Good bless the troops!!

They must have driven a long way to find that wood. In the first picture I don't see a living plant of any kind, let alone a tree, and it looks like we can see for miles.

We are so fortunate to live in this country and to have young men and women willing to give of themselves to protect our freedoms!

Its getting cold here...and wood is a hot item. We are indeed lucky in the states to live in a place where clear cutting has not happened. Many folks hate the government for regulations...but seeing a place where anything goes, regulations are not all that bad when they better the community. OK - off the soap box....

Looking at the guy's tractor, it looks like a massey ferguson 250, the same as what I have, and heres me thinking that I had a real status symbol, turns out anyone can afford one of these even in Afghanistan, and his trailer looks to be in far better shape than mine.

Wow, I like the truck.
