This next one isn't the best quality, but it is telling. My boss Stig took this one as we were getting ready to depart from Kitgum to travel by road to Pader. In a double-cabin pick-up we had a driver, two work colleagues, myself, and 10 UPDF soldiers (and I am quite sure that many were child-soldiers) to escort us. This older soldier sat in the cabin with us, his gun on alert as we traveled the dusty roads to Pader. The roads, as I have mentioned, are very insecure, so we had to travel with armed escorts (who are compenstated with either a meal or 5,000 shillings for making the trip), however traveling with one party of the conflict comes with its moral implications.
