The US military is expected to withdraw from Afghanistan by 2014. But thousands of US Marines will still deploy there within the next year to support the war. To prepare them, the Defense Department has introduced culture training programs at several military bases around the United States. VOA'S Ana Ward visited one such program at the Quantico Marine Base in Virginia - about 58 kilometers from Washington.

  • @hajqbvii Actually you should research the CORDS strategy. The reason we lost was because we failed to fully implement the CORDS program and insisted on fighting an American style. Additionally the culture teams that would attach themselves to a local village, understand and work with them recorded a lot less violence/death and increased cooperation from the local populace.

  • Cultral Sensitivity was tried in Viet Nam.....it didn't work!
