Three NATO Officers Killed At Afghan Military Academy, Officials Say -- New York Times
KABUL, Afghanistan — An attacker in an Afghan army uniform killed at least three service members from the NATO-led coalition and wounded a senior Afghan commander on Tuesday in a shooting at a military training academy on the outskirts of Kabul, an Afghan official said.
Details of the shooting, which took place on Tuesday afternoon, were sketchy, and the coalition would only confirm that “an incident” had taken place at the Afghan National Army Officer Academy. An Afghan defense official said that at least three coalition officers had been killed, and that a number of other foreign and Afghan officers had been wounded. The dead coalition service members were believed to be senior officers, the Afghan official said.
The Afghan official and a coalition official said that it appeared that the foreign casualties were high-ranking officers who were taking part in a meeting at the academy.

Does anyone have a list of the Major Generals (two star) who are in-country right now?
Obama announced a pull out time table, which was brilliant political theatre for someone... somewhere.
The Taliban get Afghanistan, Karzai gets to go to Dubai as rich as Mobutu Seko, Obama gets to rule America and everybody is happy ... everyone with guns and money.
Another Obama victory ...Iraq, Syria, Libya, Afghanistan, .... the list grows.
