On Watch

This one is more subtle, and I can't figure out how to crop the part I want and highlight it, so I made the picture bigger.  This is a hill overlooking the Forward Operating Base in Bermel, Paktika.  The hill dominates the surrounding landscape.  And if you squint, you will see an armored vehicle with a top-mount gun keeping watch over the valleys.  It went there to protect the helicopters that were coming in a bit later.  In person, it was a very cool silhouette.  In photo, I prove once again I'm not a good photographer.
