The AFOSI website is organized just like any other official Air Force website. There are tabs at the top for Photos, New, Library, Units, Questions, and such. There is also a latest new box with articles relating to Air Force topics such as Happy 68th Birthday Air Force and National Cybersecurity Awareness Month. There is a box with just AFOSI Highlights that have to deal with specifically AFOSI like joining AFOSI and an anonymous tip line. The tip line brings you to a form you can fill out with all the tip information and a terms and conditions box. All the information seems very useful and could assist with research but in traditional Air Force manner there is a lot of public relations fluff.

There are tons of links that lead you to AFOSI publications and the AFOSI’s official FaceBook and Twitter sites that can be very useful. I really enjoy the site because of all the useful information it provides. Anything you could want to know about AFOSI can be found. I do not like the great amount of useless information. The site could really do without…

for. But no one ever guesses Afghan. “Afghan”? They ask with disbelief, “oh.. you don’t look afghan?” they say. Well, how would you know what an Afghan looks like? But what they are most confused about is why I don’t have an accent, and how come I’m not wearing a burka. Though they never say that out loud, no one ever dose.

When the Taliban controlled the Soviets of Kabul, Afghanistan was a different place. We felt freedom while the parades marched through the streets, but we quickly realized that we were all very hopeful and celebrated too soon. They did not want to support the Afghans, they wanted to terrorize and kill people. Innocent people. Three of which were my friend, his son and his daughter-in-law, and he kills me every day thinking that I'll never see them…

globe, looking at human right’s violations and countries where the position of women is compromised in some way.

This followed, in diary form, the story of a young woman who escaped from Kabul and found safety in Pakistan.…

Manhua Journey to the West, a graphic novel by Zhang Guangyu in 1945, is a nod to the Chinese classic Journey to the Wets by Wu Cheng'en written in the year 1592. It is written around the reign of the KMT and during the second Sino-Japanese War. From which Zhang uses the style in which Journey to the West was written to "implicate" poke fun of the government and their policies.
