My son is a paratrooper in the 82n Airborne. While deployed to Afhganistan he spent a number of months at firebase Bruin. This short video was put together by one of the soldiers he was with. I took the liberty of adding a few comments and fixing the music.
This is the original platoon leader that built this place from scratch... had no choice, had to put it there...

despite the crap we went through there like filling the hescos,a 5 min phone call once a month, no mail it was better than being with the brass at warrior
