In this Dec. 24, 2014 photo, an Afghan National Army soldier prays during an ongoing operation in the Dangam district of Kunar province, Afghanistan. The mountains of Dangam in the remote eastern border region of Afghanistan are dotted with the smoke of mortars and rockets fired by Talban insurgents waging war on government forces as they attempt to establish a permanent presence now that the American soldiers who led the fight here for more than a decade have packed up and left.
