Local man (Michael Yon) reports on troop morale in Afghanistan

Bay News 9 "Yon says morale among British and U.S. troops had stayed pretty high, and now the troops there are really ready to take the fight to the enemy. "Just in the past couple of days since I have gotten back, I have talked with quite a few," he said. "It's clear they see this troop commitment is very important. And it's clear it's bolstered their morale." Yon says the commitment of additional troops is a signal to Afghan tribes in troubled areas they should fight on the U.S. side."
