“Helping the people of Afghanistan is the most fulfilling and meaning full experience of my career. Seeing the young children smile after receiving a pair of shoes when they had to walk through the snow barefooted lets all of us know that what we are doing is the most important thing in my life right now.” - Sergeant First Class Milton J Tilman JR.

“What we are doing here does not seem like much but to these people this means the world. Helping soldiers train and helping the Afghan Locals are some of the reasons why I joined the military. You get a big sense of satisfaction / mission accomplishment from the children’s laughter as they get what they need. The future of this country is the children.” - Major Harry Bird
