Under Pressure
This is what a pressure switch IED looks like. There are 2 wires that touch when you run over it, functioning the device. Haji even hand painted it to look like the road. This was my welcome back present from Haji as I returned to the FOB. We got so close to it the gunner could no longer see it from his position atop the Hummer. There were 2 170mm artillery rounds connected to it.
