Afghan National Army Soldiers arrive to assist Afghan National Police with security during a transition shura in Khak-E-Safed district, Farah province, Afghanistan, Feb. 23, 2013. Farah Provincial Governor Dr. Mohammed Akram Khpalwak used the transition shura as an opportunity to highlight Afghan National Security Forces', especially Afghan Local Police, successes which allowed the de-militarization of coalition forces in the area. Afghan National Security Forces will continue counter insurgency operations without the presence or mentorship of coalition forces. (U.S. Marine Corps Photo by Sgt. Pete Thibodeau/Released)
