Afghan National Army engineers with 4th Kandak, 1st

Afghan National Army engineers with 4th Kandak, 1st Brigade, 215th Corps, construct a bridge here, March 13. The bridge is vital to local travel and commerce to the village of Sera Qalah. The 4th Kandak’s leadership conducted an engagement with local leaders, discussing the details of the project. Two weeks later, Bravo Company, 3rd Combat Engineer Battalion, provided materials for their Afghan counterparts, and the project was initiated. The engineers moved more than 350 cubic yards of earth, installed two culverts, and built a bypass for military vehicles to access the construction site. The Afghan engineers used their own bulldozers, loaders and compactors to construct the bridge.
