The 203rd 'Tandar' (Thunder) Corps is a corps of the Afghan National Army (ANA), headquartered in Gardez. The corps commander is Brigadier General Abdul Wase.[4]

The original Gardez Regional Command was established on 23 September 2004.[5] As of 2009, the corps consisted of the First Brigade (Khost), Second Brigade (Forward Operating Base Rushmore, Sharana, Paktika Province), and Third Brigade (Ghazni). As of 30 November 2011, Brig. Gen. Zamaray Khan was listed by Jane's Defence Weekly as commander of the Second Brigade, 203rd Corps.[6]

On 19 Oct 2006, as part of Operation Mountain Fury, two Embedded Training Teams (ETTs) mentored and advised a D30 artillery section from Fourth Battalion, Second Brigade, 203rd Corps, as it conducted its first artillery missions during combat operations, harassing the enemy with indirect fires.[7] Three days later, the battalion successfully conducted counterfire (with assistance from a US Q-36 radar) that resulted in ten enemy casualties, the greatest number of casualties that ANA artillery fire had ever inflicted.{{Citation needed|date=August 2007}}

The corps is supported by the Gardez Regional Support Squadron of the Afghan Air Force, equipped with eight helicopters: four transport, to support the corps' commando battalion; two attack; and two medical transport.[8]
