The road refers to mud tracks that cut through the district and was constantly IED'd by Taliban. It was eventually built up and paved.
Panjwaii was the Taliban heartland. I don't know how many Canadians know how tough that combat mission was. It was sometimes insane. Paul Gross did spend some time there, in 2011. For me, it's hard to think about even now (I was civilian, not soldier) and I have no interst watching a dramatization, but it may be of interest and even educational to others. Or so I hope.
Yeah, I would love to watch a story about Canadians over there. I just don't want it to be a Paul Gross project

Too many men for Vancouver for like 5 seconds, no call.

I'd like to see a few more hits but at least they're skating a bit now. Just need to keep it up.

15 in the first. Second has been much better.

Is it just me, or does Romanuk keep calling Ferland, Engelland?
