Thought shall be the harder , heart the keener,
Courage the greater as our strength faileth.
Here lies our leader ,in the dust of his greatness.
Who leaves him now , be damned forever.
We who are old now shall not leave this Battle,
But lie at his feet , in the dust with our leader

Some of the blokes have been bringing back old Afghan treasures for quite a while but maybe still abit early to be digging for the modern gear !!
Did you dig them yourself Chu ? Any photos of the area ?

Photo 6 depicts the insignia of the 97th Signal Battalion:
USAREUR Units & Kasernes, 1945 - 1989
Photo 11 depicts the insignia of the US Army Transportation Corps ... doesn't appear to have changed at all from the WWII ones that I find on old American airbases here in England ...
All the best,
