| Campaign story | Following a year of the Afghanistan president "Nur Muhammad Taraki" a pro soviet activist who sought close ties to the soviets, even requesting entire regiments of soviet forces into the region to assist in their fight against the Mujahadeen rebels. In September 1979 he died under suspicious circumstances and was replaced by "Hafizullah Amin" Shortly after he took office the KGB had accused him of seeking closer ties to the USA and Pakistan. By December a plan had been made by the sovits and an alliance to replace "Amin" as president had been secured. On Christmas day 1979 soviet troops began their invasion to install a puppet government. Our story starts 2 days later. Soviet forces are in range of Kabul and only 500 Palace guard stood between 30,000 Soviets and President Hafizullah Amin. After the initial invasion we follow the actions of both the Mujahadeen rebels who sought freedom from the invading soviet army, as well as taking a look at the soviet point of view rooting out insurgents and preventing supplies from Pakistan from making it to the hands of the Mujahadeen. |

Campaign proposal has been review, but J3 has questions regarding;
- Fighting as the Mujahadeen will need approval from OC and CC as they can be seen as a jihadist group, alternatively J3 suggest to re-name the faction to something like "Afghan Freedom Fighters".
- Fighting as a guerilla faction is not withing UNITAF SOP and will need future amendments by J6
- J3 would ask, if the campaign name can start with "Operation XYZ"
Tagging
J6 Policy Staff Central Command (CC) and Operations Command (OC) for imput on the above.

A very interesting premise for a campaign, I see some good potential here.
At the same time, there are some pitfalls, which @SFC Kerry kindly has highlighted already - particularly with regards to SOP. Whilst the proposal says this will be a highly kinetic conventional campaign, being as outnumbered and outgunned as the Mujahadeen does not provide a good environment for conventional SOP adherence. In fact, it is even written that this campaign will focus on "smaller scale insurgent style engagements". There's a clear contradiction in the proposal here. I would therefore need to understand in greater detail how this will interact with our current SOP, and some clarification of what this campaign's identity really will be, if we're to approve this.
