A group of Afghan children follow Air Force Maj. J. D. Loftis, a public information officer with Task Force Zabul's Provincial Reconstruction Team, and are surprised to find he can speak fluent Pashto, one of Afghanistan's official languages. His ability to speak to the locals in their own language instantly breaks down cultural barriers and builds trust.
