My very first experience with the international community here in  Afghanistan revolved around the Pamir crash that took place on May 17th.

This was not a traditional FBI investigation.

We put together a team of maybe four or five FBI personnel.

Not just agents because it was such a very robust investigation.

The gratification from doing this type of work is second to none.
