I thought I would share this bit of info.
I have been in contact with the military museum in Calgary recently. They asked me if I had photos to give them from my tour. The people at the museum say they are thrilled to get their hands on anything to do with Afghanistan
I have tons of photos and videos from my tour, but was extremely hesitant to submit them as many could potentially be OPSEC sensitive. I certainly don't want to hand out anything and find myself in trouble.
The response was that the DND is involved with the museum, and that there is a screening procedure regarding the submission of the photos. Anything considered classified would be kept that way until safe to release.
So for those here who have lots of afghan photos, you might want to consider getting in contact with your nearest museum and preserve your experience overseas for the future generations.
