Paul Gilfeather of Today (26-27 Feb, page 2) in his article "The SAF's Afghan diaries" writes about MINDEF's six-part video series on the Singapore troops serving in Afghanistan. As a box for the story says, "Over the past 10 years, the Singapore Armed Forces has sent around 2,300 troops around the world on international peace-keeping duties and security operations. Out of that number, hundreds -- the exact figure is classified -- have been posted to battle-ravaged Afghanistan."

The article is compelling reading, and sheds light on the exemplar work of the SAF teams there. See also the six-part video series posted on MINDEF's cyberpioneerTV.
