JTAC Hill

JTAC Hill - Joint Tactical Air Co-ordination - is a fort in Helmand Province, Afghanistan, originally built in 1841 by the Royal Engineers for the tactical defence of British India. Since being strengthened, it has been used as an important strategic base in the ongoing war in Afghanistan.
