The Battle for Afghanistan - Part III / by Justin Merriman


These are some of the images from today's story from Afghanistan..."The Tani Mission: One Village at Time." The story takes an in depth look at the 101st Airborne soldier's daily missions to villages in the Khost province of Afghanistan along the porous mountain border in the counterinsurgency fight against the Taliban, al Qaida and other militants. Be sure to check out the print edition of the paper as well to see the terrific layout, and of course check out the website www.pghtrib.com to see more images, slideshows, and videos.
