RALEIGH, (SGRToday.com) - More than 850 structures have been removed by the team working to reduce the U.S. military's physical footprint in Afghanistan following years of conflict with the Taliban.

The January issue of "The Corps Environment," published by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, reports removal of defensive barriers, demolition and miscellaneous debris, scrap metal and wood, wire and cable, and florescent lights.

The Huntsville, Alabama based Engineering and Support Center is managing the project at more than 60 U.S. military camps and bases in the country.
