Title: Any SWN in Afghanistan?
Post by: vb on April 14, 2009, 09:00:42 AM
Fellas,

I know we have forumites here who are with the armed forces etc.

I am on the verge of taking up a post in Afghanistan. Not too sure yet.

Just wondering if any brothers over there?

some. It was quite a mix, white turbans, blue and just a few of the taliban's black turbans. Women with no veils mixed with those in full burka. the big buddhas were still there.

Well hear dis,

my friend working there three years now, a Turkish woman.

She told me that her driver had his hand broken by the Taliban, pre 2001.

Why?

He had a dvd of the Titanic (movie).

Apparently under their rule, ppl weren't allowed dvds, tvs or cinema.
But everybody had thick curtains and was watching TV.

I just couldn't believe they break the man arm for a dvd. But as he put it, he only get licks. Dey coulda kill him.

They also promoted only having a woman for procreation - in other words doh enjoy sex too much. Ah doh know if anybody take dem on.

 A lot of these women now have a skin problem becz of no exposure to the sun, missing that particular vitamin from the sun.

I heard when the Russians were there it was pretty secular. But Reagan say the russians were godless and the rest is history.

I usually go frome one point to another via car. Advised not to walk around.
However, today or tmrw plan to go to the local shopping centre. Will try to get some shots then.

A little paranoid to take shots in the camp becz dey eh like dat. Unless is in the cafe or soemthing.
Brown man taking shots all over the place. I already gett attitude from the Canadian section when I asked about their net service. When I explained I was a Canadian citizen, ah get an "oh." :-)

Even the taxi ah call yesterday shake he head negatively yesterday and say he not there for me...the man head jerk when he realize is my number he calling.  :rotfl:

I guess ah looking to Talibanish  ;D

vb, I am sure there is a plethora of Trinidadians in the various armed forces in Afghanistan, but of course, especially in the US Military.  II eh sure hummuch access you have to them but if you link up with any of the us units and/or commanders there you wouldn't have as hard a time of finding the Trinis as you would of finding any of them that does be on this forum.  Whatever limited internet time dem fellas (and ladies) will get I'm sure will be spent mostly contacting loved ones.  Good luck and be safe.
