Were those guys in the Afghan army even going to get paid again after we left? I'd bet

a lot of the military and civil leadership couldn't wait to get rid of us so they could steal everything in sight. They had the big army to keep them in control. They were probably a big part of the reason why those guys wouldn't fight.

1. The guy who got out (Pres. Ghani) took carloads of cash with him

I think by then the banks were all closed.

2. Did the contractors get out?

3. They weren't getting paid while we were there. Corruption was rampant while we were there.

It was an utter joke from start to finish.

4. I knew we caught some of their commander stealing the troops pay at the start.

No doubt that continued as much as possible.

5. Do we know what will happen to US equipment (weapons) etc?

Hopefully we're either retrieving everything or destroying those items?
