Without men you and the Afghan colonel there'd be no progress whatever. As for the US colonel, sadly, there are too many like him. ~P~ What a wonderful experience – for all of you, and for us to hear about.

When you say he's the bravest man you've ever met that's high praise indeed knowing in a small way, as I do, of some of your own experiences. I wish the Colonel well and continued success. Hopefully he can come back and speak again for he has much to teach coalition forces. Above all I wish the good people of Afghanistan well. I wish death to those that would do them harm.
