Winch me, baby.

Coalition force members use winches to pull a stuck vehicle out of a soft spot in the desert after departing a village stability platform in Khak-E-Safed district, Farah province, Afghanistan. Coalition force members were located at Village Stability Platform Khak-E-Safed in order to train and mentor Afghan National Security Forces. Coalition force members de-militarized the VSP allowing ANSF to single handedly continue counter-terrorism operations and bring security and stability to people of the district.
