Presidential Unit Citation to Task Force K-Bar

[TravelingHomeless]

Are there any sights that anyone recommends that puts more of a highlight on the actions of forces from the countries that operated in the task force? I'd hope to find more but only so much in English that pertains to the German KSK or Norwegian HJK. Can anyone find a report or easy translation that gives more of an insight? I'm quite curious to know more about the overall allied role in the first several months of the fighting in Afghanistan.

As for the German KSK:

The little available coverage on their deployment to Afghanistan giantly differ in terms of contents.
Recently a parliamentary report indicated they would have never fired a single round in Afghanistan, says the government - which is widely regarded as a plump reaction to the "Kurnaz affair" (Mr. Kurnaz, a German citizen was detained by US forces and claimed to have been tortured by Germans in Kandahar). Moreover, the government even refused to confirm that the KSK had been sent to Afghanistan till late 2003 and it had an unnamed KSK officer prosecuted for his cooperation with a German weekly magazine that brought reports about the deployment (and stated 12 KSK operatives would have been killed in action over there).

I can't remember the number of the issue anymore, but "Stern" weekly brought some reports about the KSK in Afghanistan in 2003 or 2004. According to them, the KSK was used as a reconaissance force in "OP Anaconda" in spring of 2002. According to a report of the prestigious daily "Frankfurter Allgemeine" in August '08, they also took part in the Battle for Tora Bora but only in a supporting role to protect the flanks.
It's also understood that KSK troopers guarded a detainment camp in Kandahar before the Battle for Tora Bora.
The common agreement in the media is that after "Anaconda", the KSK was basically unemployed till they were withdrawn from Afghanistan in 2003.

I know that Denmark had 103 men in that Task Force. They were called Task Group Ferret...

The book Killer Elite has some information on TF K-Bar.

I'm pretty sure the book "Not a Good Day To Die" also has some info.
