Heck yeah it was. I flew ALL OVER the Eastern part of that country. And yes, the good terps had bounties on their heads BIG TIME. What FOB/Bazaar you referring to? (I mighta been there). Anyway here’s a hilarious Jingle-truck driver’s account of why he smoked so much hash; we let them park overnight on FOB cuz they lived in fear too. I was investigating a rocket attack and smelled hash over by these Jingle-trux so I walked over. This guy was high as a kite & grinning, learned quik he spoke broken English. I sez to him “Dude aren’t you scared driving when the Taliban probably know you deliver stuff to us”? He smiled, pretended like he was smoking while steering all hunched over & says “I keep smoking and think NO TALIBAN, NO TALIBAN” while glancing over his shoulder. Ya had to be there...
