    Building Afghanistan: U.S. Army Corps of Engineers at work

    KANDAHAR AIRFIELD, Afghanistan -- How does the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers oversee construction in Afghanistan? Who decides the scope, design, location or budget of the projects? The answers to those questions are not simple, neither are the steps involved in bringing projects to completion.
  • From the left: Eric Milstrey, USAID District Stability team lead for Maiwand, Alan Avery, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers 565th Forward Engineer Support Team-Advance, and Lt. Col. Robert Bensburg, Regional Command-South Stability Division, Infrastructure officer in charge, discuss a proposed electric utility improvement project in Kandahar Province, Afghanistan, Nov. 29, 2012.

    U.S. to improve electric grid in Kandahar Province

    KANDAHAR AIRFIELD, Afghanistan -- Electricity is a scarce resource in Kandahar City, but should become less so for Kandahar government district centers and businesses when four separate projects, designed to improve electricity distribution in key areas of the city, are completed by winter 2013.

  • December

    Staff Sgt. Daniel McKinney demonstrates the use of a utility truck's hydraulic system for Afghan electrical engineers and linemen during utility truck training held in early December, in Helmand province, Afghanistan.

    KANDAHAR AIRFIELD, Afghanistan -- Afghan engineers and linemen in Helmand province just got a major helping hand thanks to a U.S. Army Corps of Engineers program that taught Da Afghaninstan Breshna Sherkat (Afghanistan's electric utility company) employees how to safely operate the new electric utility trucks donated to them by the United States in early December.
  • Karen Anderson, deployed to the Afghanistan Engineer District-South from March 2009 to December 2012, was presented the Steel de Fleury Medal Nov. 21 by Afghanistan Engineer District-South Commander Col. Vincent Quarles.

    Executive officer awarded Steel de Fleury Medal for contribution to engineer regiment in Afghanistan

    KANDAHAR Airfield, Afghanistan -- Backing away from a challenge is not in her character, neither is doing something half way. Karen Anderson, the tenacious executive officer, was recognized Nov. 21 with a Steel de Fleury Medal for those character traits and the many behind-the-scenes contributions she made to the Afghanistan Engineer District-South and Army Engineer Regiment during her nearly four-year deployment to Afghanistan.
