Over the next few days, I’m going to present a few photos taken by SPC April York of interactions between the Afghan people and our troops. I think it’s important to see these interaction. Remember these links when you here from people who say that our troops are “terrorizing women and children in the dark of night” or similar ignorant statements.
The fact is that our troops care about making Afghanistan a better place. The kids are innocent in all this and it’s important that young adults and children understand that WE are not the threat.
Pfc. Jessica Dostie, a military policewoman with 58th Military Police Company, attached to 2nd Brigade Combat Team, 4th Infantry Division, hands a toy ring to a young Afghan girl. Dostie and her fellow MPs, along with their Afghan Uniformed Police partners from Police Sub Station 16, were in the community of to reach out to the people.
