"Blowing Bubbles" Blowing Bubbles - An Afghan boy blows bubbles given to him by US Army troops (seen in the background) December 3, 2002 during a US military civil humanitarian mission in the village of Tadokhile in central Afghanistan. The mission provided more than a hundred Afghan men, women and children from the village with free medical care and basic dentistry as part of the ongoing Operation Enduring Freedom. US military leaders have recently indicated a shift away from combat operations in the war in Afghanistan while increasing the emphasis on civil humanitarian efforts to rebuild the country and provide stability for the new government.
