FILE - In this Aug. 26, 2010 file photo, U.S. Army Spc. Cody Borawa, of Unadilla, N.Y., of Tactical Command Post, HQ Company, 2-502 Infantry, 101st Airborne Division, looks for a Taliban position, during a day of joint missions with the Afghan Army, in Zhari district, Kandahar province, southern Afghanistan. Since May, troops from the U.S. Army's 101st Airborne Division have flooded into this region in a bid to disrupt the guerrillas' operations and block them from staging attacks into Kandahar city, the security of which is considered a linchpin of American strategy to win the conflict. But the militants, some from neighboring Pakistan, have brought in hundreds of fighters of their own and stepped up attacks, U.S. officers say. (AP Photo/Brennan Linsley, File) (AP)
