OP ATHENA

            June 7 2007
Kandahar, Afghanistan  

The M777 guns of 2 Royal Canadian Horse Artillery (2 RCHA) stands ready for immediate action at Forward Operating Base Serwan Ghar. 

About 2500 members of the Canadian Forces (CF) are currently serving as part of Joint Task Force Afghanistan. They play a key role in the NATO-led International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) mission whose goal is to improve the security situation in Afghanistan and assist in rebuilding the country.

Canada is in Afghanistan at the request of the democratically elected government, along with 36 other nations, and as part of a UN-sanctioned mission to help build a stable, democratic, and self-sufficient society.
