So my companies mission was to do security on chabelley airfield. So defending on the schedule we would stay a few days at the main camp, then convoy over to the airfield for a few to pull guard.
We would go on a highway, then a dirt road that would go through a wadi or two. A lot of the road had trash piled up around it. A lot of huts and weird looking shelters were sheet metal and tires and trash. The dirt road has a water Buffalo we watched decompose over a few weeks. Trash was everywhere there as well.
On the way to a range we went through a small town which was old brick, wood gathered, sheet meta, tires, etc. some market looking stalls and goats everywhere. We had kids chase the bus and wave at us (got a picture of one) and people once again generally seemed indifferent to us.
