Notes

  • Author's note: This book is a personal account of my time in Afghanistan from 2003 until 2006. It is as I remembered it and the opinions expressed are entirely my own. Names and some minor details of characters and organisations have been changed to protect their privacy. UN security terminology has also been changed in the interests of its ongoing operations in Afghanistan. There have been some slight adjustments in chronology for the purpose of the narrative.
