Kandahar Supplies

"It's everything under the sun, from foot powder to everything I'm wearing, to weapons, Head and Shoulders shampoo, toothpaste, toothbrushes," he says, barely scratching the long list.

"The National Support Element is not the sexy part of the fight, but it's highly important. We're all about the beans and the bullets."
