Officially for Sale

What’s your best offer?  I paid a good 50 cents for each in Afghanistan, but I may con­sider re-selling.  There are mar­kets in Kabul and else­where, which locals call “Bush Mar­ket”, that sell Army and Police uni­forms (as well as gen­eral mil­i­tary gear that prob­a­bly fell of the back of some truck or another.)

I had an unusual expe­ri­ence, doc­u­mented in Good­bye Jalal­abad http://www.jalalagood.com/2011/05/goodbye-jalalabad/ where I actu­ally saw a crate of Afghan Army Uni­forms fall of the back of the truck and spill on the road.  You’ll have to read the post though, to learn what hap­pened next.
