The old fortress in Gardez City. Originally built by the armies of Alexander the Great, and subsequently rebuilt by many of the invading armies to pass through Gardez, including the British and Soviets. The fortress, colloquially known as 'Castle Greyskull' by American troops in the area, is currently home to an Afghan National Army detachment. U.S. Air Force photo by 1st Lt. John Severns
