00:00.940 --> 00:04.930
Yeah , Male comes into

00:04.930 --> 00:07.460
Afghanistan seven days a week . But

00:07.470 --> 00:09.430
during this time of year , postal

00:09.430 --> 00:11.660
workers seem more male than usual ,

00:11.680 --> 00:13.810
finding its way to the Bagram Post

00:13.810 --> 00:17.250
Office . Well today they have £45 so

00:17.250 --> 00:18.660
give or take maybe about

00:19.140 --> 00:23.130
£92,000. Once these pallets

00:23.130 --> 00:25.390
arrive at the post office , the real

00:25.390 --> 00:28.050
work begins , the mail is sorted

00:30.340 --> 00:32.320
and distributed into each units

00:32.330 --> 00:36.210
assigned boxes . Then the mail that

00:36.210 --> 00:38.377
goes to the forward operating bases is

00:38.377 --> 00:41.660
rippling ties to be sent out . Okay .

00:42.140 --> 00:44.307
During this time of year , the workers

00:44.307 --> 00:46.362
often don't get done until the early

00:46.362 --> 00:48.529
morning , more than usual because it's

00:48.529 --> 00:50.751
christmas time and families are sitting

00:50.751 --> 00:52.862
there , you know , soldiers more than

00:52.862 --> 00:55.029
usual . So that's a good thing keeping

00:55.029 --> 00:55.460
morale up here .
