Witness to war : reporting on Afghanistan, 2004-2009 / by Adam Day. : D2-262/2010E-PDF
"Witness to War captures Canada's evolving military role in Afghanistan over the past five years—from peacekeeping in Kabul in 2004 to blazing combat in 2006, to treacherous and difficult counter-insurgency in 2008 and 2009. The collected reports and stories contained in this volume are from the perspective of a journalist who covered the action during this time. This gives the reader a soldiers-eye view of the conditions on the ground over the changing mission. Beyond the collected stories on subjects as varied as Operation Medusa to the Counter-IED Task Force, the book contains lots of new information, including a full-transcript of an interview with Brigadier-General David Fraser, the overall commander for Operation Medusa and the top Canadian soldier on the ground during the Canadian move to Kandahar province and the Taliban's vicious resurgence in 2005/2006"--Back Cover.
