The Kajaki Turbine! I just saw this on the BBC News, so it's no longer classified. We've been working like crazy on this project for quite some time now. This turbine had an amazing trip down a road heavily infested by Insurgents and explosives, etc.. We had hundreds of troops in a massive convoy - all to bring this turbine to the Kajaki Dam. Hopefully, with this turbine, the people of Southern Afghanistan will have hydro electric power... something they haven't had much of for a very long time (like - the mid 1970's, or something crazy like that). Yep - when we saw the turbine on TV - we were clapping! So much co-operative work to get the thing there under so much danger... but it made it! Well - something really good that everyone can be proud of. I hope this serves the people of Afghanistan well, and shows the rest of the world that what we are doing here is trying to help. The soldiers who actually escorted the turbine should feel extremely proud! Deo Gratia!
