Description
Members of a United States force, the 1st Battalion, 508th Parachute Infantry Regiment, 173rd Airborne Brigade, and Afghan Special Force members, walk towards a rocky outcrop during a patrol searching for suspected Taliban fighters just outside Gombad (also known as Gonbaz) village. The 173rd Airborne Brigade was deployed to Afghanistan in February 2005 in support of Operation Enduring Freedom, the military response to the 11 September 2001 terrorist attacks on the United States.
