| Anglian troops seize Taliban village | |
| 2010-02-17 | |
| The men from C Company - currently living at the Paraang forward operating base near Nad-e 'Ali - have faced fierce fighting since arriving in Afghanistan in October. But commanding officer Lt Col James Woodham MC said the latest operation, in which they took control of the village Caowshal-Kalay from insurgents, would help secure the area. Maybe our publicity on the Marjah operation was to fix the enemy's attention there while we engage in a much broader operation to liberate the surrounding area. Ya think?

| #4 Moose, I had been awake for hours, had several cups of morning tea, and read it as "Anglican" as well. Wishful thinking.... |

| #3 I wouldnt exactly call Christian based fighters in Afganistan, Crusaders. No holy cristian relics of history in Afganistan for either Muslims of Christians, this is new ground for us to fight each other on. |
