Qalat, Zabul Province, to Kandahar Airfield, Kandahar Province

The photographs below were taken on 18-21 April 2012, during my final helicopter flights from FOB Smart to Kandahar Airfield. As you can see from these photos, we encountered some nasty weather and were delayed, and grounded, overnight at nearby FOB Lagman, also in Qalat. The views from above were amazing. The delay was perfection. Farewell, Zabul Province. I have had the absolute pleasure of being fortunate to spend time with my nephew, also named Leyton Summerlin, over the last three days; a few meals, lots of laughter, a few walks here and there - and to be with him for breakfast on my 40th birthday - well, now that is just priceless. Enjoy.
