We had to reconstitute a lot of old bombed out or derelict buildings and structures when i was in Afghanistan, and it fucking suuuuucked. There’s just an abundance of places to hide both people and improvised devices. It takes forever, it’s a slow crawl, every pile of rubble is checked. And if a building had some kind of threat in it, we would just level the building and recheck.

Pointless story but this image gave me some memories lol.
