It is classified by NATO, as a "Provincial Reconstruction Team". It consists of soldiers and civilians from Norway, Latvia, Macedonia, Iceland and the United States. It conducts joint operations with Afghan Security Forces in Faryab province. It is led by ISAF and began its work in 2004, when they took over from the British. The camp was moved out of the city due to several attacks and a lack of space, in 2006. It is co-located with the airstrip, north of Meymaneh. Several "FOBs" are located in Ghormach and Qeysar districts, which the PRT share with Afghan soldiers. OverviewThe PRT Meymaneh focuses on security operations with Afghan security forces who they 'partner'. Their joint mission is to establish a secure and safe environment for Afghan society. Since the Taliban were defeated by the Northern Alliance in 2001 and withdrew from the region, ISAF took control. Towards 2010, the Afghan Army and security forces have increased numerically and the provincial government given more influence. In Faryab Coalition forces are out to show their presence, talk to the locals to gather information and ensure that insurgents do not interfere with daily life. Operations are run frequently, both civilian and military. PRT Meymaneh was given control of security over the district in 2008, but some of the area is still under the control of insurgents. The Ring Road, which connects Afghanistan, is still not finished in Ghormach district. OperationsTo prevent insurgents from disrupting security Coalition and Afghan Security Forces have conducted 'partnered' operations in Faryab on an almost daily basis since 2004; Coalition forces train and supervise the Afghans. Most operations conducted in the PRT's area are led by the Afghans; while the PRT coordinate and plan, Afghan soldiers work in the field. Coalition soldiers are employed as a supporting force, and are in charge of security. Norwegian Operation Mentoring and Liaison Teams train officers in the Afghan Army. Norwegian soldiers have met a lot of resistance from insurgents in 2010. Between December 2009 and February 2010, soldiers from the PRT engaged insurgents in several places in Faryab province. One firefight north of the capital lasted over six hours, but no injuries or damage were reported.[2] In March 2010, the PRT, with the provincial government and Afghan Security Forces launched Operation Chashme Naw (New Source in dari Persian). The aim of the operation is to improve security in the north and northwest of the province.[3] OrganizationThe PRT consists of soldiers and civilian personnel. At least 2 soldiers from Finland, were employed by the unit in 2007 (including the unit's executive officer and one soldier who was killed on duty).[4] Task UnitThe Task Unit consists of conventional and mechanized infantry from either the Telemark Battalion, Norwegian Army 2nd Battalion or the Norwegian Army Armoured Battalion. The soldiers use Iveco LMV armored vehicles, CV9030 combat vehicles and ATV all terrain vehicles to maneuver in the hilly and rough terrain in Faryab. The Task Unit also includes snipers, mortar teams, EOD bomb disposal experts and combat engineers. From December 2011, the Latvian Army will deliver soldiers to the Task Unit. ISTAR task groupThe ISTAR task group handles information and intelligence. They operate in the province as Military Observation Teams with light vehicles such as the MB 270/290 (Mercedes Benz G-class 270/90) and ATVs. Medical companyThe medical company contains a ROLE 2 medical treatment facility and a platoon of medical evacuation soldiers in SISU armored vehicles. This unit has two surgical teams from Macedonia and the United States and has pharmaceutical, laboratory, X-Ray and dental capabilities. The medical evacuation teams follow other units in the field. Medical soldiers are only allowed to use personal weapons in self-defense and to defend patients. From 2011, the medical doctors employed by Norway's military, will not be working at civilian hospitals in Afghanistan, according to recommendations from Forsvarsstaben.[5] CSS companyThe Combat Service Support Company provides the PRT with technical repair and maintenance services and logistics. They often deliver supplies to units who are deployed in the field and frequently accompany the troops to be able to repair their vehicles and equipment. The CSS company drives Scania P93, P113, P143 trucks and the 412 rescue and recovery vehicle. The CSS also runs the kitchen in the camp. Force ProtectionThe Force protection company is found from soldiers from Latvia. As well as serving in that role for the PRT, they are also often used to escort convoys. From December 2011, The Royal Norwegian Air Force are responsible for the delivery for soldiers to Force Protection in the PRT Meymaneh. NADThe Norwegian Aeromedical Detachment was deployed in PRT Meymaneh between April 2008 and October 2012 with three Bell 412 helicopters and crew on 24 hours standby for evacuating patients from the field. One of the helicopters were armed with two Miniguns to provide close protection. 100,000 flight hours with the Norwegian Bell 412 was commemorated in December 2009 in Meymaneh.[6] The helicopter deployment ended after 4,5 years in October 2012 with 245 missions completed evacuating a total of 270 people.[7] A two-part documentary named "Livredderne i Afghanistan (Lifesavers in Afghanistan)" about NAD was produced by Bitmill for Viasat 4 in 2010.[8] StaffThis unit contains the staff comparable to a normal NATO standard battalion.
