U.S. Army got it right with brigade deployment in Afghanistan

The U.S. Army's security force assistance brigades (SFAB) are specialized units that conduct training, advising, assisting, enabling and accompanying operations with allied and partner nations. Soldiers in SFABs are highly trained and among the top tactical leaders in the Army. Their work strengthens U.S. allies and partners while supporting national security objectives and combatant commanders' warfighting needs. Todd Lopez reports on US DoD’s website.
"As our Afghan partners began to understand the value of 1st SFAB advisors, they asked us for more," Army Brig. Gen. Scott Jackson, 1st SFAB commander, said  (Picture source: US Army/Sean Simmons)
