Description

Two Afghan soldiers were assigned to protect the Kunst brothers as they walked across the Afghan Desert of Death from the Iran/Afghan border to Herat, Afghanistan. The soldiers were sent along without water or food. Dave and John insisted they catch rides and wait for the walkers in villages ahead. That way they were taken care of by the villagers. The brothers needed their water and supplies.
