    these are the smaller ones–what’s the location here? trees in the background don’t seem to say Afghanistan, maybe Europe?–but its been 4 yrs since I was there.
    Moving the two they had at K2 had to of been a gold plated bitch of an op.

      Googled for a pic of a Kalmar RTCH and found that. Caption says US Navy Rough Terrain Container Handler (RTCH) by Kalmar, from Naval Expeditionary Logistics Support Group Delta, Fort Eustis, VA, 5 April 2006.

      Nope.

      I think they disassembled the ones at K2 and flew ‘em down to Bagram on an Il-76.
