Happy Holidays!

It's been a while since the last post...a little over a month, actually.  For that, I deeply apologize.  Since then, we've been through Thanksgiving, promotions, conferences, missions, and Christmas.  With the New Year looming large, I'm going to copy some of our Good News Stories as well as pictures from the past month.  I hope when you see them you can understand why it's been a while!

To say we've been busy is an understatement.  You see, Ghazni District (one of 19 districts within Ghazni Province) is transitioning this year to become totally reliant on the Afghan Government (GIRoA) for it's funding and operational support.  However, the rest of the province is not ready to do so.  The anomoly with Ghazni Province is that it, due to it's diverse population and geography, is seen as a miniature of the entire country...with all the complexities and issues that go along with it.  We have been working on preparing Ghazni City and District to become self-sufficient while trying to get the rest of the province caught up in order to become self-sufficient as well.  It's been a difficult task, to say the least! 

I hope you see your Soldier in the upcoming posts, and I wish everyone a Happy Holidays!
