    American troops join Canadian forces in Kandahar province

    Awesome news and very much welcomed!!! I have had the honour of working along side members of the US military (Army, Navy, Air Force and Marines) in various capacities and I know the insurgents are in for a tough time with the combined efforts in the province.
