KANDAHAR, AFGHANISTAN - MARCH 11: U.S. combat forces from the 24th Marine Expeditionary Unit arrive March 11, 2008 to the Kandahar Air Field in southern Afghanistan. Regular Marine forces began returning to Afghanistan this week for the first time in more than 5 years, when they were pulled out ahead of the Iraq invasion, according to the military. More than 3,500 Marines are scheduled to deploy in southern Afghanistan with an aim to overrun Taliban strongholds in what is being called by some the "Afghan surge."
