Reflections of a Canadian Officer in Kandahar
By Lieutenant-Colonel John Conrad; Foreword by Christie Blatchford
By every principle of war, every shred of military logic, logistics support to Canada's Task Force Orion in Afghanistan should have collapsed in July 2006. There are few countries that offer a greater challenge to logistics than Afghanistan, and yet Canadian soldiers lived through an enormous test on this deadly international stage - a monumental accomplishment.

Reflexions d'un officier canadien a Kandahar
By Lieutenant-Colonel John Conrad

Cette réussite représente un accomplissement militaire monumental.
