MADISON, Wis. (WMTV) - With a little imagination and improvisation, Afghan children currently staying at Fort McCoy found a way to enjoy some fun in the sun.
On Tuesday, the Army post shared several photographs of the children playing on makeshift swings.
With some rope, several pillows, and some wood supports, the children were able to take advantage of their new swing sets. Other images appeared to show sheets fashioned into seats or hammocks to sit in.
