British Troops Conduct Counter Taliban Operations

HELMAND PROVINCE, AFGHANISTAN - MAY 21: British soldiers from the B Squadron of the Light Dragoons Regiment read magazines in a location in the desert while conducting counter-Taliban operations May 21, 2007 in Southern Helmand Province, Afghanistan. British soldiers from the Light Dragoons are living most of their six-month tour in Afghanistan in extremely harsh and primitive conditions out of their tanks. They operate without fresh food and limited water supplies in extremely high daily temperatures that can reach even 65 C (149 F) inside their tanks while driving in the desert. British troops are in the front line of the effort to suppress the efforts of Taliban insurgents to regain control of southern Afghanistan, with the threat of a reinvigorated spring offensive from the militants looming large on the horizon.
