Cow machine

If you enjoyed the read, please feel free to share it

Just 5 months ago 7 local men were riding a ‘cow machine’ – a goofy Chinese-made tractor across this very terrain. It was the wet season, so landmines are a little more exposed, tho still underground. They had the terrible fortune to drive a front wheel directly over the center of a 30 year-old anti-tank mine. It takes 150 kilo of downward force to trigger one of these, but they managed. Anti-tank mines don’t take prisoners. 7 guys vaporized just 5 months ago for a 30 year-old conflict.
