Haunted Outpost

[IS-1]

Kind of creepy.


Eerie outpost unnerves US Marines with strange lights and whispers in the night

The Marines found the bone as they scraped a shallow trench. Long, dry and unmistakably once part of a human leg, it was followed by others. They reburied most of them but also found bodies. Three of the graves were close together; in another was a skeleton still wearing a pair of glasses. The Marines covered the grave and told their successors to stay away from it.

Observation Point Rock sits a few hundred metres south east of Patrol Base Hassan Abad, where a company from 2/8 Marines has been stationed for the past seven months. It is a lonely and exposed outpost 20 metres (65ft) above the surrounding landscape, which has been in NATO hands since it was captured from the Taleban in 2008.

I have wondered how many places over there and in Iraq are now haunted, due to all the war and death in those areas over the last several years

 Not just Irag....you'd think every place on earth would be haunted, especially in  countries that were once Roman provinces. There have been so many hundreds of thousands of people killed on every square foot of the land from North Africa to Great Britain, the ghosts should be thick on the ground.
