COB is for "Civilians on the Battlefield".

The US Army is hiring German civilians for their Hohenfels training area as "actors" to play an Afghan rancher, store owner, mayor, locals also wearing MILES equipment.
They built 10 villages there, each 10 to 30 houses.

"Arabic Germans" are prefered. :wink:
The "actors" have to stay 3 weeks at the training area, living at the mil instalation and are not allowed to leave it. They get €90 a day (!), if you speaking any Afgham language up to €150. (Where can I learn Paschtu or Dari real quick?!)





Hagen, harvest time at Flohmarkt :mrgreen:
