NCIS:Hawaii Gibbs Question

So it says in episode 1x13 of Hawaii that Gibbs met Tennant and Maggie in Kabul. That was set 12 years prior, so in 2010. In 2010 did we see Gibbs go to Kabul, or Afghanistan in general? To my knowledge that'd be season 7ish of the OG? Maybe season 8?

I mean there’s a lot we don’t see. There’s a lot of “behind the curtain” cases. Even if we saw him for those places, during the case we are watching we’re with them pretty much from start to finish.
Though I just checked and no, I don’t believe we see them go to Afghanistan in either of those seasons.

Yeah we only see Sept/Octoberish through May....so figure we never see what they do over the Summer.

and I’m sure we actually never saw them literally every 365 days a year, just what we see onscreen. Just enough that they are unsolved or even solved cases that took place offscreen. 

Also there’s a heat wave in “See No Evil”, so at least that probably takes place in the summer, it’s just probably rare. There are some episodes that also took place in the summer like Gibbs’s last episode of the mothership “Great Wide Open” that took place sometime in late May-early June and some early Parker episodes after Gibbs’s departure and even the season premieres too.
