Imfazwe isihogo phantse wonke umntu osondela kuyo. Kwaye oku kusebenza nakwizilwanyana. I-United States ithumele amakhulu ezinja ukuba zisebenze kunye nemikhosi yase-US e-Afghanistan, e-Iraq, nakwamanye amazwe ukususela ngoSeptemba 11, 2001.
Ukuba izinja zisebenza emkhosini asiyonto intsha. Umkhosi ubunezinja ecaleni kwawo ukususela ngomhla wokuqala. E-USA namhlanje, kufutshane ne-1,600 ezibizwa ngokuba zizinja zemfazwe zomkhosi (MWDs) ziyasebenza, nokuba kungaphandle okanye ukunceda amagqala ukuba azibuyisele kwisimo sawo. Ngoku kukho malunga nenja enye kwijoni ngalinye lesithathu e-Afghanistan. Ezi zinja ziya zisanda kwimfuno kwaye ngoko ke izixhobo ezibiza kakhulu. Inja enempumlo ekhule kakuhle ixabisa malunga nama-25,000 eerandi!
Inja yasemkhosini eqeqeshwe ngokupheleleyo
Yiyo loo nto iPentagon ngoku isebenzela ukufumana ngakumbi ezi zinja ekhaya emva kwenkonzo yazo. Oku kuthetha ukuba bayawufeza umsebenzi wabo kwaye abagoduki phambi kwexesha. Ngale nto, umkhosi wase-US uthenge malunga nezinja zerobhothi ezingama-80 ukunceda oogqirha kunye noogqirha bezilwanyana baqeqeshe ukukhathalela izinja ezonzakeleyo.
Inja yasemkhosini eqeqeshwe ngokupheleleyo ixabisa umjukujelwa omncinane. Umnqweno kukugcina izinja eziqeqeshwe ngokupheleleyo ngaphandle kwentsimi, ziphilile kwaye ziphilile. Ixesha elide kangangoko kunokwenzeka.
Kuyabiza Xa Kubulawa Inja Yemfazwe
Inkosi iyazi kakuhle indlela ekuxabisa ngayo xa kubulawa inja yasemfazweni. Singasathethi ke ngomonakalo wokuziphatha kwamajoni, uBob Bryant, umseki weMission K9 Rescue, wachaza, umbutho ongenzi nzuzo osekelwe eHouston onceda ekubuyiseleni nasekufumaneni amakhaya ezinja zasemkhosini ezidla umhlala-phantsi.
“Umkhosi uphatha izinja zawo njengegolide,” watsho. Befundiswe ngokupheleleyo, balindele ukuba lulutho kubo ubuncinci iminyaka esibhozo okanye esithoba.
Kodwa asingomsebenzi olula. Kwizinja ezabuyela ekhaya emva kokuba semkhosini, ezingama-60 ekhulwini zayishiya inkonzo yazo ngenxa yokwenzakala. Akunjalo kuba babebadala kakhulu. Ukhankanya enye inyaniso ebuhlungu xa izinja zemfazwe zisifa edabini: “Xa inja ifumana ingozi, nomphathi wezinja ngokufuthi uyafa.”
