Afghan Commandos ( ANA Special Forces ) Intense Live Fire Exercise

Afghan National Army Commandos conduct a live-fire exercise on range, rocket-propelled grenade exercise, participate in tactics training with coalition Special Operations Forces in order to maintain and improve skills.

Commando units and formations are part of the Afghan National Army and were formed from existing Infantry battalions. The program was established in early 2007 with the intent of taking one conventional battalion from each of the ANA corps, giving them special training and equipment and reorganizing based on a United States Army Rangers battalion. Each battalion is assigned to one of the seven military corps.
