In this story they talk about how American soldiers get killed in some valley in Afghanistan. They young and un-experience American solider going to the war in Afghanistan, but their only dream is to go to the college in the future.
It also pints out about president Obama’s strategy to train Afghan military to become self-sufficient so that they can to fight against Taliban and Al-Qaeda. It says “The war in Afghanistan defies generalization, each province, each valley and each village can be its own universe, presenting its own problems and demanding its own solutions”.

The military is an authorized group of people who use force, including weapons to defend a country. It is also used to protect a country’s border from attacks and to provide a secure environment where the people may live in peace and pursue a happy life. A strong military is an important and essential pillar for a strong and independent nation. There are eight countries in the world with powerful military forces that dominate the world economy and population. Those countries are the United States, China, Japan, Germany, France, India, Britain and Russia.

Training of the Afghan military force is an important issue and stabilizing long-term plan for the United State. They should try to build a new unified Afghan National Army, which they consider more the security of the country and the re-emerge of the Taliban and terrorist groups. In this cause the Afghan military and police forces would ultimately take over the U.S. and other international military force’s role. They would provide a reasonably stable environment so that the Taliban and Al-Qaeda do not return, so that Taliban do not seize power in the government, or spread terror again. Therefore, it is very important that the Afghan Army grow and become stronger.
