Videos from the Field
A couple of practical jokers in Afghanistan take a home video. Teaching kids bad words and venting.

Trust me..... that is history repeating itself relating back to EVERY occupation...... kind of an unspoken tradition among military people.

I got similar treatment from older kids in the neighborhood when I was the age of those little Afghan kids. Especially one kid who would say "Eat me" and then laugh like an idiot when I'd make eating motions at him.

Yeah, I guess every well we build, every school we reconstruct, all the medical care we provide and every other humanitarian effort we do--to include providing security for these people--is negated by a few ignorant morons, the leader of which isn't even wearing the proper uniform for the AOR!
I've been to Afghanistan twice, and the vast majority of forces stationed there work hard and risk their lives to make the lives of the Afghans better. Same applied to Bosnia, another war-torn country I had the pleasure to serve in. And that is not a sarcastic remark, I always felt that peacekeeping missions were the greatest and most productive contribution the military could make for a country. Every group has its bad apples, and unfortunately they like to video tape their idiotic activities and post them on the Internet for the world to see; but I can tell you firsthand that the efforts of many countries have greatly improved the situation over there, and most Afghans appreciate that!

That was hilarious. Still can't tell if its dubbed, or just bad quality.
And unless you've been in a war, fuck you for judging soldiers. I'd be little bitter too if I was fighting a pointless ass war, and was sent on to the front lines without a flak jacket. Seeing nothing but poverty, death, disease, body parts. Those dudes would go crazy if they didn't have something to laugh at. |
