The United States government and our military in Afghanistan claim the Afghanistan National Army consists of 90,000 troops, but the truth is it is more like 40,000 because of desertions and Afghan troops going AWOL.
According to President Obama, the whole mission in Afghanistan is to train the Afghan National Army to eventually take control of security for the country.
However, there are many in the U.S. Army who claim the Afghan National Army is so undisciplined that desertions and AWOL go unpunished and the ANA is just a shell of what an army should be.
In this video, you will see and hear what they are saying on the ground in Afghanistan about the Afghan National Army. It's NOT a pretty picture.
