Program empowers Afghan citizens to protect against threat of IED attacks

A local citizen who lost his leg from an improvised explosive device detonation encourages people to help protect one another by reporting enemy activities through the Department of Defense Rewards Program and Operation Jaeza Dec. 7, 2009 in Afghanistan. The citizen's sons had to drop out of school following their father's disability to help support the family. Reporters interviewed Afghan Maj. Gen. Abdul Khaliq and Army Brig. Gen. Kurt Fuller about the monetary rewards program to gain actionable information or non-lethal assistance from citizens during a press conference at Forward Operating Base Thunder, Gardez District, Afghanistan. General Khaliq is the the Afghan National Army 203rd Corps commander. General Fuller is 203rd Corps deputy commander and the Combined Joint Task Force-82 deputy commander. (U.S. Air Force photo/Tech.
