Honoring our Special Forces history and the warriors The FEW supports right here in Salina. Take a look, neighbors! 🇺🇸 – Post 240

On this day in U.S. Army SF history.....19 Oct 2001 – First two U.S. Army teams inserted into Afghanistan to work with Northern Alliance Forces, ODA 555 (5th Special Forces Group). These are the first American military "boots on the ground," after the 9/11 attacks.

The first of several SF elements infiltrated Afghanistan. Eleven members of ODA 555, onboard MH-47 Chinook helicopters, arrived late in the evening at the Astaneh camp in Panjshir Valley and received their initial briefing. Within a few days, ODA 555 would link up with NA’s General Bismullah near Bagram. That same night, the 12 men of ODA 595 infiltrated the Darya Suf Valley on MH-47s to join General Dostum’s forces in Dehi, some 60 miles south of Mazar-e Sharif. Not long after the team split into two sections, one accompanying Dostum to his headquarters, the other remaining at Dehi.
