100513-F-1020B-003 Kabul - An elite group of Afghan National Army commandos graduated to become the first Afghan Special Forces during a ceremony at Camp Moorehead May 13, 2010. The special forces soldiers completed a 10-week training course, led by U.S. Army Special Forces, or Green Berets, in addition to their 12-week commando training. The U.S. and new Afghan special forces will live and work in remote villages to aid communication between village elders and district leaders and help build long-term stability.
