Airmen and soldiers serving with the Methar Lam Provincial Reconstruction Team in Afghanistan distributed about a ton of school supplies to two Afghan schools. The supplies, some of which came from non-profit groups in the US, included backpacks, teacher’s kits, notebooks, pens, pencils, and soccer balls. According to a PRT news release, the students were eager to get the supplies and equally eager to talk with the US forces.
Unit commanders are being told to separate service members who can’t shave their cheeks and chin for medical reasons for more than a year, according to new guidance from Secretary of War Pete Hegseth.
