COP Keating LZ - Kamdesh - Sling loading a generator

[amram24]

I was one of the engineers that built this camp... all for nothing because all we did was fight... SF told us if we went up there to bring body bags

[tHeWasTeDYouTh]

@amram24 I read that people left in a hurry so the Taliban was able to get to the ammo and salvage it, fail man

[amram24]

@tHeWasTeDYouTh built in the worst place ever

[tHeWasTeDYouTh]

@amram24 not only that, you know the people that live in that area, Nuristani people

they were the first to rise up against the USSR and start the war in the 80's, you guys got stuck against the most hardcore Taliban

[amram24]

@tHeWasTeDYouTh yeah you still see the russian half tracks right in front of the camp like it was a reminder to not be there

[otetechie]

@amram24 "built" is kind of a loose term. There never was much to it.

[amram24]

@otetechie running the c-wire and setting up and filling hescos, tearing down the corn field, and building b-huts. but you are right there wasn't much there.

Well to comment of the landscape and having been there. We used to say it was like summer camp but we got shot at(all the time). Worlds most Dangerous Summer Camp!!!

[otetechie]

I can't believe you were able to stay on the LZ that long without being rocketed.

[tHeWasTeDYouTh]

@otetechie Taliban was in the bathroom

[Sputters]
