A Naval Officer's Adventure in the Highlands.of Afghanistan. Over Thanksgiving, I was sent out into the field on a mission with the ANA (Afghan National Army). It was unbelievably crazy and in a morbidly sick way, unbelievably fun.For my family and friends, I'll be happy to share the story over a pint of stout or a cold IPA when I return. It's just not cleared for this forum. Remember to send your donations to:. CSTC-A, Pool House. APO, AE 09356. December 23, 2009 at 7:56 PM. From the NOTU Ya Yas. The th...

Highland Sailor: Mid-February Update
http://highlandsailor.blogspot.com/2010/02/mid-february-update.html
A Naval Officer's Adventure in the Highlands.of Afghanistan. Just a short update I apologize for not updating you all more often, but I have been extremely busy. My Boss, My Bosses Boss and my Bosses Bosses Boss have all changed in the last week, so I have been training their reliefs.

Until next time: Keep your eye on a shipmate, head on a swivel and stand by to Give'em Hell! Afghan J...

In other words, no pictures and nothing I can report on in this blog.not very exciting I know, sorry. Please keep sending your donations and thanks for your support. Women hiding from us. A Nav...

Highland Sailor: Three Cups of Tea
http://highlandsailor.blogspot.com/2009/10/three-cups-of-tea.html
A Naval Officer's Adventure in the Highlands.of Afghanistan. Three Cups of Tea. If you haven't read "Three Cups of Tea", I strongly recommend that you do so at once. It's required reading for all officers in USFOR-A. It offers a wonderful insight to the Pashto People. Available at your local bookstore or library. I love the giggler on the end. Not in keeping with the 3 cups theme, but a great photo nonetheless. Until next time: Keep your eye on a shipmate, head on a swivel and stand by to Give'em Hell!
