Success in Afghanistan

Blackfive, HT The Bench:
A combined Afghan element led by 203rd Commando Kandak conducted a series of raids throughout the Sabari district in Afghanistan's Khowst province, Dec. 27–28.

The force consisted of Afghan national army, Afghan national police and Afghan national border police. The operation was unprecedented in terms of successfully capturing multiple suspected insurgent commanders without the use of lethal force and the excellent cooperation between the Afghan ministries of Defense and Interior, U.S. officials said.
One captured insurgent had destroyed the village school---terrorists, trying to destroy the Afghan future, especially that of the girls whom they did not allow in school. This is one more tangible success for the good guys.
