Bahadur, Afghan Air Force, rescues a small child on July 29, 2010 when the Afghan Air Force responded with two Mi-17s and aircrew accompanied by United States Air Force Air Advisors to an urgent request to begin rescuing people overcome by rapidly rising flood waters at the confluence of the Kabul and Laghman Rivers, about 11 miles west of Jalalabad. Over 2,100 people were saved, by the AAF and their Mi-17s from the high threat raging flood waters most of them under the threat of foreign insurgent fighters. (Courtesy photo by Maj.
