Camping in an insurgent hotbed, the life of an Army scout

BADGHIS, Afghanistan -- An Afghan woman and her son ride a donkey through a U.S. Army scout presence patrol in Nawbor Village, Bala Murghab District, Badghis Province, Afghanistan, Jan. 16, 2011. The scouts, who hail from White Platoon, Bulldog Troop, 7th Squadron, 10th Cavalry Regiment, 1st Brigade, 4th Infantry Division, at Fort Carson, Colo., identified the woman's family as having recently moved to the village, after insurgents ran them out of their house - which was outside Bala Murghab's security bubble.
