Things got stoopid in KAF toward the end, as the Americans took over everything. It became an offence to take pictures outside the wire (i.e. through or over the fence). As if the Afghans didn't know what their huts or camels or mountains looked like already. The fun police were in full effect, and there were a lot of micromanaging regulations that came down from on high that honestly had nothing to do with OPSEC or actually winning the fight
