As U.S. Drawdown In Afghanistan Continues, U.S. Footprint Shrinks In The Country

PUL-E ALAM, AFGHANISTAN - APRIL 03: A guard tower that was once in a heavily populated area on Forward Operating Base (FOB) Shank is now surrounded by open land and abandoned building sites on April 3, 2014 near Pul-e Alam, Afghanistan. As the U.S. changes its role in the 13-year-old war from combatants to advisors many U.S. military installations in Afghanistan are being downsized or closed. Shank, which is currently being downsized, is expected to be turned over to the Afghan National Army later this year. (Photo by Scott Olson/Getty Images)
