YOU MIGHT DIE EVERY SINGLE DAY
BEING DEPLOYED TO AFGHANISTAN AS A SOLDIER OF GERMANY ARMY.
The deployment to Afghanistan starts with us being torn out of
sleep: torn out by the tactical flight of our C160 through afhgan clouds heading for KUNDUZ airport.
My mission in a country that I have only known from books and Tv starts with the
happiness of having reached the ground safely. War, terror, pain and misery are clearly branded on this places people`s faces. But them there is also something more.
Hospitality and appreciation accompanied my exploration of a country which I would
have never expected to be that way.

From this point on, the Bundeswehr also participated in the foreign missions of the NATO troops. In December 2014, the ISAF mission ended in Afghanistan and a new advisory and training mission began. This is my – and their – story.
