US troops from 1-38 Infantry move cautiously in Pay-E Moluk village in Panjwayi, Kandahar, 30 April 2013. Moments later a Taliban fighter jumped up from behind the wall in the centre of the photo and opened fire on the soldiers from approximately 10 feet. The patrol was ambushed earlier in the day and turned into a five hour firefight. (John D McHugh)
