I truly hope we will send more instructors down there, both police firefighters, medical personell and military experts, to train the afghanistan people to take care of themselfs.
The work our Soldiers do down there are a huge effort to keep safe, those critical engagments we have, with creating a new Country.
This is a huge Task that NATO has put themselfs to do, to rebuild a country.
Rome was not built in a day, rest in peace, your lifes will not be invain.

RIP.
Unfortunately the worst month for NATO/ISAF forces so far, with the 4 US troops killed a few days ago and the special forces chopper incident earlier on in the month.

It really stings me. Norway has not taken much casaulties the last years (thank God), so I think this is our highest military loss in one single incident since WWII.
RIP to all of you, we really appreciate what you and our NATO-comrades are doing down there.

RiP. I've been to Norway several times and worked alongside their Armed Forces, very professional.
Must have been a large device to cut through that, same vehicle the British Panther is derived from.

it is derived from the smae vehicle indeed, only tha norwegian version has better armor
making the necessary blast even bigger, taliban has learned that with enough explosives, it really doesn't matter what vehicle you are in
