    Clouds move in over a terrain feature, where suspected enemy spotters were observed, during a village clearing operation in northern Khakrez District, May 25, 2011, Kandahar province, Afghanistan. Operations such as these, conducted by Afghan Commandos with the Afghan National Army’s 3rd Commando Kandak and U.S. Navy SEALs with Special Operations Task Force–South, help legitimize the government of Afghanistan and hinder Taliban influence in the area. Also assisting during the operation were members of the Afghan national police and Ghorak District Chief of Police Alam Guhl.
