On his arrival, General Anderson was received by Army Corps General Maurizio Angelo Scardino, commander of the "Train Advise Assist Command West" (TAAC-W), the Italian-led multinational command on a "Garibaldi" Bersaglieri brigade base, which he accompanied him to Piazza delle Bandiere where he met the multinational representatives of TAACW.
The senior official expressed his appreciation to all the TAAC-W, which although it is made up of contingents of different nationalities, has shown unity of purpose in achieving all the objectives assigned.
General Anderson then met with the commander of the provincial command of police in Herat, General Bahsodi, and then went to Camp Zafar, where he met the commander of the 207 army corps of the Afghan army, General Jahed.
At the end of the visit, before returning to its headquarters in Kabul, the commander of IJC conferred the title of "Honorary Sky Dragon" to General Scardino, who reciprocated by naming him "adheremary bersagliere" of the bersaglieri brigade "Garibaldi".
