Afghan National Army soldiers march in the Sangin district of Kandahar province in southern Afghanistan on Thursday, June 13, 2013.

That question is especially pressing here in this border region, where insurgents regularly ambush government forces and control parts of the countryside. (AP Photo/Allauddin Khan)
