Afghanistan Tarok Kolache

A farmer works in the fields, Friday, April 1, 2011, in the village of Tarok Kolache in the Arghandab River Valley of Afghanistan. Village elders and coalition forces held a ribbon cutting ceremony Friday for a mosque, the first completed structure in a massive joint reconstruction effort by Tarok Kolache landowners and International Security Assistance Forces since the village, previously a Taliban stronghold, was destroyed in October 2011 in an effort to rid it of insurgents.
