It's insane. It literally rains bullets. Last year when Iraq won the Asia Cup, we were locked down inside our buildng for at least 45 minutes afer the victory listening to guns going off in all directions and bullets pinging all around the building. We all got "Asia Cup Souvenirs" once it was safe to go out.
Luckily - and Marines building well, like Marines, the sandbag OP was well up to the task.
He said the ground was so littered that it was difficult to walk - slick like snow/ice.
So, ya, hadjis are nutz.
