One of my dearest friends in this world is the widow of General Mohammad Daud Daud. I have come through her eyes to know what an honorable and courageous man he was. I have come to know as well the leadership which he not only exhibited every day on the job, but lived behind closed doors at home. True character really is what you do when no one is watching. Afghanistan lost one of her finest sons on May 28, 2011. We are leaving Afghanistan soon, this country must have those sons and daughters supported who are willing to rise up in the same honor and devoted service to Afghanistan that my dear friend's husband lived and died in.
