At the same time the US has been telling me my service might not be needed and the AF is threatening to cut me from the service, I've been feeling like I can do much more here for Afghanistan. I keep looking for a way to get more involved in the fight against the insurgency. I
finally found a way to stay employed. I joined the Afghan National Security Forces. The first picture is me in the ranks. I'm now ready to kill Taliban!
Well, as you know, fate dictates my path. After the Afghan generals noticed my commitment and eagerness, they immediately promoted me to Brigade Commander. The second picture is me giving the troops a motivational speech before we deployed to the front line. I'm not sure
how much they understood since I only know a few Dari words and they only speak a few English words.
Salam Malekum,
MARIO "Mohammed" PEREZ, Colonel, ANSF
Commander, 4th Mountain Brigade
