Ghazni Province, Afghanistan - Children of the orphanage take turns enjoying the slide while (left) Musa Khan, Provincial Governor of Ghazni) watches on in delight during the playground dedication at Ghazni City Orphanage in Ghazni, Afghanistan Dec. 15. The playground was donated by friends and family of USDA advisor Tom “Big Daddy” Stefani, who was killed in action by an improvised explosive device in Ghazni in October 2007. During his time in Ghazni, Stefani worked with the Directorate of Agriculture, Livestock and Irrigation and Texas Agribusiness Development Team to create plans for poultry rearing facilities, tree farms, and improved grape production. While in Ghazni, Stefani learned that the orphanage in Ghazni did not have enough toys or equipment. He immediately launched a plan to raise money from family and friends for a playground for the orphanage. Senior Airman Courtney Witt)
