GHAZNI PROVINCE, Afghanistan – At the Andar District Center, Afghan National Police gather around a photo June 5 of the former Andar police chief, Col. Muhammad Nabi Patang, who recently died fighting the insurgents during a patrol May 22. “He was a good man,” one ANP said as he gazed at the photo while others asked to see it. The Ghazni Provincial Reconstruction Team had taken the photo of Colonel Patang in the past and offered it to the ANP as a gift to thank them for their hard work. (U.S. Air Force photo by 1st Lt.
