The Darkest Hour Page #2
It scared the daylights out of her.
Yourfirst thought is that
something terribIe has happened.
But it was a business caII from India
about something they're printing -
- and they forgot
about the time difference.
Since we Ieft Denmark,
the enemy's objective hasn't changed.
The TaIiban's objective is
to destabiIize security in HeImand -
- and undermine the IocaIs' trust
in the lSAF forces.
It's important to get
- to establish contact with the people.
When you eat yourfieId rations -
- and there's something
you don't Iike -
- l suggest you save it
and bring it on patroI.
Give it to the chiIdren
as a sign of goodwiII.
RuIes of engagement.
Remember that self defense
can appIy prior to being fired upon.
Such as by confirmed weapons or
peopIe moving into a position to fire.
Yes. Go get ready.
Listen up. Line up, so 6-5 can take
our picture before ourfirst patroI.
I don't have anything.
I can see why the wadis
are dangerous.
They can easiIy hide an IED.
The thought is sickening.
We're most likeIy to go around it -
- so it wouId be stupid
to put one here.
the fence on the eastern side -
- of the row of bushes
that run from north to south.
WeIcome to Nam.
- Hey, interpreter!
- FoIIow me. Come.
HayatuIIah, hurry.
Don't let them onto the poppy fieId.
This way. Not in the field.
I wiIl show you.
SaIaam aIeikum.
How are you? AIright?
- Read your book.
- Are you reading? Yes.
- lt's a madrassa.
- Are you studying the Koran?
- Have things been caIm?
- How is the situation in the area?
- CaIm?
- No, where is it safe?
- Are the TaIiban in the area?
- They've taken the whoIe area.
How couId you not know?
They're everywhere.
TeII us if you see anything.
So we can get them out
of the area.
You come with all your weapons,
and then you Ieave.
We're staying here, and then the
TaIiban wiII come after us.
But if you don't cooperate,
- and then we can't build
a schooI for your kids.
You have guns, they have guns.
If I taIk, they'II cut my throat.
- Look at my back!
Look cooI, man!
Just a sec.
First patroI reporting.
It didn't feel Iike anything.
Not reaIIy.
I probabIy will,
when we get into the shooting.
But this is aIso part of it.
It's not all fighting.
Right, we're also here
to heIp these poor peopIe.
It's like going to the fun fair
without trying the roIIercoasters.
AIright, Iet's start the debriefing.
The patrol itseIf. How did it go?
Individual skills reaIIy sucked.
SeriousIy.
How many feII to their knees
on short stops?
So, eight men out of 50.
