speaker, Norman Rumpel, who spent
time looking after generators in
power plants in Afghanistan in
Camp Julien. He was given five men
from India, who spoke no English, to
assist him.
The country has been at war for 20
years so many houses have been
destroyed or bullet ridden.
He stressed that the, average
person from Afghanistan has a
strong dislike of the Taliban rulers
and was bothered to see that the
women have no support system and
no rights.
The weather made his work
difficult as it was cold and snowy in
the winter and very hot in the
summer. The sandstorms were a new
experience to the military.
He told of the huge poisonous
snakes, the scorpions and the camel
spiders which could cause severe
health problems. -
On display was a hand-carved
chess set, currency, men's clothing
consisting of a long, loose shirt,
trousers and head scarf made of a
