| The United States will send an additional 1,400 Marines to Afghanistan in the next few months to try to solidify progress in areas of the south before troop reductions begin in the summer. The Marines will be sent mostly to Kandahar province, the spiritual home of the Taliban and already an area of intense fighting by U.S. Army troops. |
