1ST BATTALION 508TH IN PAKTIKA PROVINCE, AFGHANISTAN, 2007


Follow That Trail
dust trail, that is.  Hard to lose sight of a moving vehicle in this terrain

Grasslands Are Less Dusty
and a welcome relief for those riding in trail

Objective In Sight
across what may be a poppy field, a hillside home is tough to spot as it is made of local mud brick and blends in well

Automatic Weapons
are out while passing through potential ambush points

Nice View, But ...
Members of the 1/508 cast a wary eye on the surroundings

On The Job
men dismount, M-16s at the ready

Anybody Home?
a patrol checks out one of the many caves pocking the hillsides

Captive Check
an area native is examined for contraband.
