Afghan National Army soldiers fire artillery during an independently-ran live-fire exercise at Forward Operating Base Naghlu High Nov. 19, 2012. The ANA also conducted a counter-improvised explosive device training lane immediately after the live-fire. Every day the Afghan National Security Forces' capabilities are increasing, conducting independent operations with little-to-no international involvement. For this exercise, French and U.S. forces provided additional security. (U.S. Army photo by Capt. John Ignat, 2-7 Cavalry, 4th BCT, 1st Cavalry Division UPAR)
