A photostory on the war in Afghanistan. Following troops when they first arrive in the country, the work they have to do, and finally their return home.

A sincere thank you to Peter Trayhurn for his time, patience and passion throughout the shoot. As the day progressed Peter shrugged off tiredness to assist any way possible in addition to sharing a very personal insight into that life-changing day almost four years ago. A subtle reflection of his true spirit and generosity.

Thank you also to (retired) Captain Peter Rietdijk for his time and beautifully spoken words, it was a real pleasure meeting him & his wife after tracking them down all those hours north of Sydney.
