Summary
Service members with the Regional Corps Battle School chat with Afghan National Army Col. Shahwali Khan, the commanding officer of the Regional Corps Training Center and his staff after the Eid al-Fitr meal on Aug 8, 2013. “You don’t just walk in and talk business overnight, you have to sit down and invest time with your counterparts to understand them and allow them to understand you,” said Maj. Aron M. Axe, the operations officer with RCBS. “Particularly in Afghanistan, there has to be a trust built there because the concepts we put forward are complex and for them to trust that these concepts are going to be successful, they have to trust in us and that doesn’t happen overnight.”
