Afghan National Army soldiers simulate clearing a compound with help from their instructors at the 2nd Brigade, 205th Corps ANA Non-commissioned Officer Academy on Forward Operating Base Eagle in Zabul province Jan. 10. Command Sgt. Maj. Kafayatullah, 205th Corps command sergeant major, along with other Afghan, U.S. and Australian enlisted leaders visited the academy to see the progress being made by ANA soldiers during their four-week course. Students are distinguished by their bright green armbands, while the cadre wears bright blue. Visitors were able to observe demonstrations that included room-clearing procedures, searching shops, questioning locals, and reacting to and successfully handling the discovery of an improvised explosive device.
