Not yet. But they are talking about hosting the Extreme Winter Sports here.

Main events will be

IED Ally- A 6k run where you have to avoid the local kids asking for money, the odd donkey cart pulling a oversized load

Bagram Bob Sled- a rough 4k course where you have to avoid Taliban totting RPGs, Slow moving NATO convoys and the occasional Toyota Corolla

And Finally,

The cross country opium sprint.

You have to run across a 5 K valley with 50 kilos of fresh opium on your back. All the while opposition drug lords try to kill you, Karzhi tries to buy you out and John Kerry tried to get you to sign a petition to stop growing opium

It has been down to -20 this year.

I am sure the scarves would be handy but unfortunatly, they cant wear them while in uniform.

Also, it is starting to warm now. It was almost 45 yesterday
