Good News from Afghanistan! U.S. Forces Airlift Food to Cut off Village
I just saw on CNN International, U.S. Forces helicopter Air-lifting food and needed supplies to a Mountain Village in Afghanistan, that has been cut off by Heavy Snows and Avalanche.

Unfortunately, more than 200 Children have already died due to the extreme weather, but, as most of the Afghan news always seems to be bad, I thought you all might not mind a little Good news.:grouphug:

1. It's always good
when they really get a chance to be heroes. Must feel good to them too.

3. Come on folks, how about a thank you for the Troops here
:wtf: This is the kind of thing ALL of the troops still in Afghanistan should be doing. I feel, if this type of thing would continue, we might actually make some friends in Afghanistan.
