Did he have a pierceing in his left ear?
Nevertheless
The biggest bs i've read today was this:
http://www.spiegel.de/politik/ausland/isaf-soldaten-muessen-geladene-waffen-tragen-a-850739.html

Sorry just in german: but they said that the ISAF Command has ordered after the attack, that every Isaf personal in Afghanistan has to be armed at any time. As far as i know Isaf personal is always armed, even the medics and staff in the camps have to carry at least a pistol. BS journalism again. Or am i wrong?

H.Krustowski (http://www.apacheclips.com/boards/member.php?33049-H-Krustowski) btw, as i know you're wrong

thay aren/t allowed to wear arms or loaded arms 24h
just from now, as it commanded

More from Fox News (http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2012/08/17/coalition-troops-now-armed-at-all-times-on-afghan-bases-in-wake-insider/#ixzz23qXRIzcC);

The directive, confirmed by Fox News, was issued by International Security Assistance Force Commander Gen. John Allen. It says that troops should no longer simply keep ammunition magazines close by — instead, those magazines should be loaded in the weapons.
Depending on where troops are stationed in Afghanistan, this is not an entirely new practice. At Bagram Air Base, for example, weapons carried by NATO troops are often inspected upon entry to make sure they are loaded. But that was not the practice at ISAF headquarters in Kabul where service members have, until now, been directed to empty their ammunition upon entering the base.
