Con Ops started it by stealing our Magic Eight Ball and demanding a ransom for it in pirate-speak. We stole their parrot and made pirate hats for ourselves.
Also visible is a confiscated sign that we felt like keeping.

Afghan police of the Special Response Team (SRT) have passed a milestone after they planned and led an operation into Uruzgan Province on 12 December.
OP KHUDAY 02 was the first SRT planned and led operation under the mentorship of the Special Operation Task Group.
The operation included a shura with an official of the Government of the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan (GIRoA).
OP KHUDAY 02 was an opportunity for the SRT to demonstrate their capability to local Afghans.
It is expected that the SRT will plan and lead all their operations in the future.
The SRT was established in the lead up to the 2010 Afghan National Elections to provide the Uruzgan Provincial Government with a response capability.
SRT members have deployed on operations with their SOTG mentors and provide the Uruzgan police and GIRoA with the capability to tackle the toughest of assignments.
The SRT is drawn from members selected from the Provincial Response Company, (PRC), which is part of the Afghan National Security Forces (ANSF).
The Australian Special Operations Task Group (SOTG) is deployed to Afghanistan on Operation Slipper to conduct special operations in support of US-led Coalition security and reconstruction efforts in the country. .
.
Australian special forces professionalism and the experience that they have built up working with other countries over many years is valued by coalition partners involved in the operation. .
.
The deployment of the SOTG has also been welcomed by the government of Afghanistan..
.
The Australian commitment to Afghanistan is an important and valued contribution to coalition forces’ efforts to bring improved security and stability to Afghanistan..
.
The SOTG deployment is, additionally, an important part of Australia’s involvement with the international community to combat international terrorism.
It’s probably not going to solve every problem, but Treyarch have offered an ini fix for “certain i5 CPUs”.

Mid Caption: The Australian Special Operations Task Group (SOTG) Afghan Task Force (ATF) is responsible for training and mentoring members of the Afghan Provincial Police Response Company (PPRC) in Tarin Kowt.
The SOTG partner with the PPRC on operations and when possible, all SOTG operations are led by the PPRC.
The SOTG Afghan Task Force was established to raise, train and sustain the local PPRC after the Afghan Ministry of the Interior (MOI) directed the creation of 18 Provincial Police Response Companies around the country.
All 18 PPR Companies are partnered and mentored by ISAF Special Operations Forces, including an Oruzgan PPRC, who have been partnered with Australian Special Forces from the Special Operations Task Group since July 2009.
The SOTG Afghan Task Force consists of mentors drawn from the Australian Special Air Service Regiment and the 1st and 2nd Commando Regiments.
All the PPRC attend an eight week Police Basic Course conducted by the MOI and the 30 day Special Response Team Course conducted by the ATF before they can partner on operations with the SOTG.
The ATF also provide them courses in Combat First Aid, Humvee driving, Counter-IED, Pashtu literacy, and a number have attended the ISAF Counter Insurgency Course in Kabul. Some also go on to complete a 30-day Advanced Special Response Team Course with the ATF.
