Three American service members were killed and another wounded Saturday when an Afghan soldier opened fire on them in the country's eastern Nangarhar province, U.S. officials said.
In a statement, the Pentagon said the wounded soldier had been evacuated for treatment and the incident was under investigation.
The so-called insider attack the second of its kind this year happened in Nangarhar, where Afghan troops and U.S. special operations forces have been locked in combat with an Islamic State-affiliated militant group for months.
The shooter was killed immediately.

Exactly why are we still in this sh*thole?
Can anyone answer the question?...Why are we still there in Af-Rag-Istanbul?
RIP.
The term used to be wasted.
Why are we helping them..?
More and more I think the Soviets genuinely wanted to bring them out of their drug-fueled, primitive feudalism.
They LIKE boy/goat humping, marrying illiterate women and living in squalor:
WHY ARGUE...?
Yes, the worst person in the world is that guy over there with TWO goats..!
Yes, The Purveyors of Evil is that uppity Other Tribe across the valley, yesss..!!
Yes, yes and GOODBYE.
The US sends their regrets that as he fell, the shooter slipped into a pig trough and was immediately consumed by hungry hogs.
Does the family want the bones left behind? They are still wet with pig saliva.
It is past time to play world series level of hard ball with these folks.
Ya know what’s sad? If we nuked Afghanistan, nobody would notice.

Pull out our troops...Draw a TARGET in the sand.....

Sound advice.
Exactly why are we still in this sh*thole.

I know a lot of posters years ago would call FReepers who wanted to forsake these mohammedan hellholes “surrender monkeys” and cut and runners”, but I see nothing to justify the loss of our brave men and the hundreds of billions of taxpayer money shoveled into these ingrate toilets. I think more and more people are waking up to this reality (the McCaniacs and Grahamnestyiacs aside).

No one seems to know.
When Obama was running in 2008 and was promising to get out Iraq, Afghanistan was considered the “good” war
