| How many German and French soldiers in Afghanistan |
|
I got into a heated argument with a conservative radio talk show host and he asked me how many German and French soldiers were serving as part of the coalition in Afghanistan. I said none. He called me a liar and said there were some. He didn't know how many. Are there any German and French soldiers there now. Where can I find coalition stats on foreign soldiers in Iraq and Afghanistan?
