I was asked to go on this humanitarian mission to inspect this road that was being improved, essentially just being smoothed out to allow for easier traffic. It still is very much a dirt road, and we drove down this road to inspect the work done on it and talk with local Afghans about any future projects they might want done to their neighborhood.
We almost brought down a mud wall with our humvees when we had to drive around or onto mounds of dirt being used for the road work, but it wasn't anything a little mud could not fix.
