Kentucky National Guard troops deploy on Agriculture mission.




Members of the Kentucky Army and Air National Guard deployed recently to Afghanistan as the Agriculture Development team. The teams main mission is to teach the people of Afghanistan to become self-sufficient and be able to create their own agricultural marketplace by teaching them modern farming methods. Here are some photos my friend has taken during his deployment.
