USACE personnel celebrate Father’s Day in Kabul, Afghanistan

U.S. Army Corps of Engineers civilian and military personnel from the Afghanistan Engineer District North and coalition forces at the Qalaa House compound were treated like royalty during a special Father’s Day celebration June 17. In a restaurant-like setting complete with a sports bar theme and the sweet aroma of hamburgers and chicken, more than 150 USACE fathers, grandfathers and future fathers gathered inside a decked-out, transformed K-span and bunker to enjoy a special dinner complete with fixings served by women from the district. They enjoyed made-to order specialty sandwiches with their choice of onion rings, french fries, potato salad, desserts and a variety of beverages. As they entered, women tied a traditional Afghanistan scarf on each man’s neck.
