 Afghanistan: Afghan National Army maintenance soldiers complete training with Texas Guard members By Courtesy report
 LAGHMAN PROVINCE, Afghanistan - Soldiers of the 236th Engineer Company from the Texas National Guard presented certificates of completion to 11 Afghan National Army soldiers assigned to the 1/201st Engineer Corps for completing maintenance training at Forward Operating Base Gamberi, March 24. "I am able to teach others what I have learned now, and we are happy they have trained us," said ANA Sgt. Abdul Jala, a sustainability engineer with the 1/201st Engineer Company. Afghan National Army soldiers from the 1/203rd Engineer Corps trained for several months with the Soldiers assigned to the 7th Engineer Battalion at Forward Operating Base Gamberi. "Our way forward now is to let these ANA soldiers go out to their units and reassess their skill level and see how well they retained the information taught," said Army Staff Sgt. Michael Harvel, the maintenance noncommissioned officer in charge with the 236th Engineer Company. Although the training is complete and certificates were awarded, the partnership with these ANA soldiers will continue since the sentiment with the soldiers trained is that there is good training still to be done. "There are many things we must learn to be good mechanics. We need more training on how to drive all the vehicles we must fix," said ANA Staff Sgt. Toti Gul a maintenance non-commissioned officer said.
