Summary
editDescriptionParatroopers Firing a Mortar in Afghanistan MOD 45149839.jpg |
English: A Paratrooper mortar platoon team fires 81mm shells at Taliban positions in support of a patrol from X Company, 2nd Battalion the Parachute Regiment at FOB Zeebrugge near Kajaki, Afghanistan.
It was of vital importance that security was maintained around the area of the power station, so that engineers could continue to provide electricity to the local population of Southern Afghanistan. The operation to provide a second hydro-electric turbine to Kajaki Dam and thus bring power to over 2 million peeople, was the biggest reconstruction project to take place in Afghanistan upto that time.
