Soldiers of the “Dark Side” Convoy Escort Team, 359th Inland Cargo Transfer Company and the Afghan drivers cheer on their friends as they engage in a friendly arm-wrestling competition at Forward Operating Base Fenty, Afghanistan Feb. 24, 2013.  The soldiers and Afghans are often on stand-by for hours at a time waiting for permission from their higher headquarters to continue their mission. Weather, attacks by insurgents, an increase in the overall threat level and cargo truck maintenance are reasons missions are often delayed. A vehicle borne improvised explosive device, also known as a car bomb, was detonated in the nearby city of Jalalabad that morning, delaying the CET. (Photo by U.S. Army Sgt. V.
