U.S. Marines to take up fight for Sangin as Brits Withdraw | |
2010-09-14 | |
![]() Neither British nor U.S. officers describe it this way aloud, but it's hard to avoid the conclusion that U.S. Marines are being sent in to complete what the undermanned British couldn't, in a province once known as Helmandshire for the U.K.'s dominance here. Almost one-third of the 335 British troops killed in Afghanistan since 2001 have died in this single town of 20,000 people. Well done Lads, you've done your best with what you had to work with.
