#1 The shells in the above photo appear harmless. The explosive charges have been removed to make IED's. Afghanistan is littered with such ordnance.

The yellow plastic jugs in the foreground are used for storage transport, and emplacement of the explosive materials.

#3 You are most welcome SteveS. I wish I were still doing that type of work. Helping to take those materials out of circulation was quite rewarding.
