KANDAHAR, AFGHANISTAN - NOVEMBER 11: Lights from various take-aways and fast food outlets still operating illuminate diners eating at the Broadwalk at Kandahar airfield on November 11, 2014 in Kandahar, Afghanistan.

As the drawdown of the US-led coalition troops heads into its final stages, many parts of Kandahar airfield - once home to tens of thousands of soldiers and contractors - are being closed or handed over to the Afghans.
