AFGHANISTAN-US-UNREST
US Marine General Larry Nicholson (R), commanding officer of 2nd MEB greets Marines with 1/3 Charlie Company as he pays a visit to a newly-built Company Operating Base (COB) in the northeast of Marjah on February 14, 2010. NATO commanders said the start of a major US-led offensive against a key Taliban stronghold in southern Afghanistan had been a success as the operation entered its second day February 14. US Marines led the charge on Marjah, a town of 80,000 in the central Helmand River valley controlled for years by militants and drug traffickers in the first major test of President Barack Obama's new surge policy.
