Here I am in Farah Province, Afghanistan, chatting with LtCol David Odom. Colonel Odom is the commanding officer of the 3rd Battalion/8th Marines at Deleram FOB. The 3/8 has been in the thick of it for months. Spirit of America has provided them with materials to help train Afghan Security Forces, as well as medical supplies for a regional medical clinic being constructed in the village right outside their door. We will continue to work with the Provincial Reconstruction Team

(PRT) for Farah Province and its commanding officer, Navy CDR Benjamin Nicholson, in the coming months and years. Thanks to the 3/8 for being the pioneers for us in this region of Afghanistan. There is a lot of work to do, but we're good to go.
