Like many modestly sized villages in the region, it had formed in a large valley at the convergence of two lines of communication, one being our Main Supply Route (MSR). While generally unremarkable in any other way, the village had a significant and well supported insurgency due to its close proximity (10 kilometers) to Pakistan and that our MSR was also their MSR.

This section of highway was narrow in width, and would typically add about…

Although I disagree with the way Darden handled the situation…

Also, with spring comes the return of some of the local birds, which include bald eagles and loons, which head…
