Those are some intyeresting and educational videos. Thanks Snafu!

I had general knowledge that India & Pakistan has an ongoing conflict going on "up in the mountains", but I had no idea what it was really like. Camp @ 19k ft with patrols going even higher (India main camps even higher?) DANG! No wonder they're losing so many folks to the elevation.

*HONESTLY*, I hadn't even considered the pun side of that. Perhaps I should have used the word "altitude" versus "elevation".

Here’s the Indian TSA equivalent in action, check-out the “intimate probing” this local was giving me on the pedestal (me in orange shirt).

Pic snapped last summer by a female colleague while taking a domestic flight between Bangalore and Chennai.

Interesting vids, those dancing troops freak me out a bit though.
