Summary

U.S. Marines with Weapons Company, 3rd Battalion, 3rd Marine Regiment, and Afghan Border Police rush off a CH-53D Sea Stallion helicopter during Operation Shahem Tofan (Eagle Storm) here, Feb. 10. After arriving in the desert on helicopters and an armored convoy, ABP and the Weapons Marines scoured dusty highways for smugglers and insurgents moving across the eastern desert into Helmand province, Feb. 10-13. The mission was a shift from the ABP’s current assignment in Garmsir district, where they keep watch over its southern population centers. Under the coalition mentorship, they are returning to their core capability of interdicting insurgent activity across Helmand’s border.
