EDITORS COMMENTS
The print captures a powerful moment as an Army Air Corps Lynx Mk9A helicopter lifts off during Operation Omid Haft in Afghanistan. The image showcases the bravery and determination of A Company, 1 Rifles, who are seen boarding the helicopter for a Helicopter Assault Force (HAF) operation. This particular mission was focused on the town of Alikosi in Helmand province, which had been under Taliban control. The troops successfully took over a compound within this stronghold and established an Operational Check Point (CP ZARAWAR). From this strategic position, they would not only conduct patrols to provide security but also work towards improving living conditions for both themselves and the locals. The soldiers shown in the photograph exemplify resilience as they integrate with the community to force out insurgency from the area. Their dedication is evident as they simultaneously build up defenses while engaging with local residents. This multi-faceted approach demonstrates their commitment to restoring peace and stability in Afghanistan. Photographer POA (Phot) Hamish Burke has skillfully captured this pivotal moment that encapsulates both the intensity of combat operations and the camaraderie among military personnel. Through his lens, we gain insight into one chapter of Operation Herrick—a campaign aimed at countering insurgency in Afghanistan's volatile Helmand province.
