Special Forces find arms cache in their back yard... |
2002-10-25 |
U.S. special forces found a cache of buried weapons while installing a chin-up bar at one of their bases in eastern Afghanistan. The troops were digging a hole about 30 feet from their front door at Deh Raud, a town in south-central Afghanistan, when they found the cache on Tuesday. They found five AK-47 assault rifles and 11 more advanced AKM assault rifles, 7,500 rounds of 7.62 mm ammunition for the rifles, one rocket-propelled grenade launcher and 16 grenades for it. Sounds like you still can't throw a rock in Afghanistan without hitting an arms cache... |
