Were you in Afghanistan or Iraq???? I helped build those in Bagram.
Nope, though good job to those that were! However, this use of shipping containers did make some news back here, to those following the action.
FYI, there are over 1 million unused shipping containers outside the Port of Los Angeles alone. They were a big reason the trade deficit with China was so huge. The Chinese made them, but it wasn’t worth it to send them back empty as back haul. You figure, at $30-50k a throw, that really ran up the price tag.
