WHAT’S SPECIAL TO NOTE ABOUT OCT. 7?
The War on Terrorism began in Afghanistan on this day in 2001, when a U.S.-led coalition launched Operation Enduring Freedom with a bombing campaign on Taliban-controlled areas. American and British forces led the attack, with support from France, Germany, Australia and Canada. The invasion of Afghanistan was in response to the Sept. 11, 2001 terrorist attacks on New York and Washington, D.C.

Scores of Alaskans have served in Afghanistan, including U.S. Sen. Dan Sullivan, who is a U.S. Marine colonel. Also, thousands of soldiers from JBER’s 4-25 Spartan Brigade have been deployed in Afghanistan over the years.
