DEATH OF A POLICEMAN

Comdr Hussein & a member of a the POMLT
***

During a tour overseas a person is involved in many things and with many people that form long lasting memories. Many are funny, exciting and happy memories. More recently our involvement has lead to many losses, which only leave us with those memories.

**

We always remember our friends and comrades from home that have been lost but those who work along side us over here are sadly overlooked. Those who want a better life for their family and friends; those who stand along side us when bullets are whining overhead; and those who share a meal and a friendly laugh with us.

**

Recently we have lost one of our own; a man who welcomed us to his home; who supported us and who treated us like one of his own. A Commander Hussein of the Afghan National Police stationed in the Zharay District, Kandahar Province was ambushed while on a foot patrol and lost his life.

**

We just wanted to acknowledge his dedication and professionalism to his country and to us when we had the pleasure to working together.

May God be with…RIP
