05/25/09: Police Mentoring Team Viper's XO, Staff Sgt. Sean Tremblay, from Williamsburg, Va., prepares to search a building in Kadu, in Afghanistan's southern Zabul province. It's remote even by Afghan standards, where villagers have mistaken U.S. forces for being Russian.
Right after Afghan National Police have swept through the village, Tremblay follows close behind. "It's their country, we're just escorting them. I'm going in to double-check," he said. You look for things that may be out of the ordinary for a village, like binos or two-way radios. There is no law against owning them, but it gives you an idea of what you're dealing with."
