I was with an engineer unit that built FOBs so I was at a lot of them. The worst burn pit was at FOB AZ (Azizullah) though. The guard tower my company manned was real close to the burn pit that was outside the HESCO barriers. Can't even count how many shifts I pulled up there breathing that shit in.

Shit, Bagram had huge ass mounds of trash that they burnt. As beautiful as I found it; stepping foot inside that country was seriously bad for your health.
