KAF is NATO base. The largest in the world. We got 42 countries repping for the Afghans. As mentioned before, we are the largest crew here. Along the boardwalk-which is reminiscent of some old pier sans the water-there's a few countries that have their own base exchange store. The French, The Canadians, The German stores all carry a mixture of military clothing, toiletries, candy, electronics(waaay overpriced) and some cool stuff.

At the Deutsch store, they have a collection of satirical, probably not too P.C. in some circles-velcro patches that spoof brand name logos with a war slant. One of the most popular ones is the "MAJOR LEAGUE INFIDEL" patch that is like the major league baseball logo except it shows a soldier in a shooting position. There's a few notable others that reflect the humor that can be found in f*** up situations such as war. I am going to collect quite a few of them and wear them on some "OPERATION ENDURING FREEDOM satin jacket with my Fort Green, Brooklyn VFW hat or on my TRAVIS BICKLE designer label jacket upon my return to the streets of Brooklyn...
I'll meet you in NYC... perhaps we can mosey on over to Tribeca... Deniro has a 'Bar & Grill' there (hope it is stll there) I miss NYC... I feel the East beckoning...
