NANGARHAR, Afghanistan (Feb. 9, 2010) - 100209-A-3421S-191 Army Lt. Col. Randall V. Simmons, Jr. commander 1st Squadron, 108th Cavalry Regiment, and 6th Kandak Afghan Border Police commander Col.

The Malik and core members of the Shinwari jirga, or council, brought in a high value person of interest for questioning to the coalition forces. The act is a show of trust and sustainment in keeping with a history-making tribal unification agreement signed in late January by 170 Shinwari tribal headsmen promising to work with the Afghan government to end government corruption, dispel anti-Taliban and anti-Afghan forces and cease growing and producing poppy products.
