Photo album now online from my Africa trip [updated w/slideshow]

It's annotated.

Find it at http://picasaweb.google.com/thomaspmbarnett/AfricaTrip.

[Ed: Or just watch it here.]

Captions are easier if you click through to Picasa. To see them here, click the speech bubble at bottom left.

The blog should have been up by now at Esquire.com. When it is, it will help you understand the pix a bit better. But my captions alone should make the basic plotline fairly clear.

Enjoy.

Any idea who manufactures those CLUs?

No I don't, but they should make a bundle on them because they're really nice and so simple to install. I could see a million uses for these in all sorts of situations, especially anything austere or rapid onset. Amazingly clever deals.

I don't know who makes them, but we called them "pods" at Camp Doha, Kuwait. They were stacked two high inside an air-conditioned warehouse. I found some old pictures from 2003 online. When I got there in 2005, they were phasing those and the trailers out while we closed the camp. They were all loaded onto trucks and shipped somewhere else. The big support contractors like KBR or CSA would know where to get them.
