I'm no Fox Mulder but let me tell you about my tenuous connection to a #cryptid (with connections to #military #Army #afghanistan #intelligence and #history #cryptozoology!). A 🧵

The time: 2003
The place: Bagram, Afghanistan - in the heart of #Parwan Province

I was a Staff Sergeant in a small intel shop in charge of security for Bagram Air Field.

One day, the resident #HUMINT team came to my office, a little miffed about a mission they had just been given.

Fire in the Salang Tunnel in #Parwan province #Afghanistan. It's kind of a big deal because there aren't many (any?) detours that are open year round in that part of the country.
