US military strategy from eastern Afghanistan
All this week, we mark the eighth anniversary of the war in Afghanistan with a series of conversations. We revisit the attack that killed eight American soldiers from Colorado Springs’ Fort Carson over the weekend. To get some perspective on the attack and on broader military strategy, we hear from Major T.G. Taylor, who is with the International Security Assistance Force in Jalalabad, in eastern Afghanistan, where the attack took place.
