How oddly (ironically?) appropriate. The symbol of the Prince of Peace reverently and proudly constructed from glistening artillery shells.

Something about this picture really struck me.
There's both the tie to the military, and also the the planting of this midieval looking cross on the rock of Afghanistan.
It seemed so "crusader."
