For today’s Geo Quiz we asked where the name of a US base in Afghanistan comes from. The base is called ?Forward Operating Base Frontenac.? The original Fort Frontenac is in Canada ? in Kingston, Ontario ? and that’s the answer to our quiz. Anchor Marco Werman gets the full story from military historian John Grodzinkski of Canada’s Royal Military College.
