Sangsar, Panjawi Disctrict, Kandahar Province in Afghanistan.
Canadian and Afghan National Army troops move at night, and engage Taliban forces at dawn. The firefight drags trough the morning. A wounded talib is given first aid and evacuated by a US helicopter to Kandahar Airfield for treatments.
Notice the bullets and RPG rounds wizzing by close to the cameraman. Wicked.
"War is an ugly thing, but not the ugliest of things. The decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic feeling which thinks that nothing is worth war is much worse. The person who has nothing for which he is willing to fight, nothing which is more important than his own personal safety, is a miserable creature and has no chance of being free unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself." John Stuart Mill
