STORYLINE:

General Abdul Rashid Dostum, the leader of Afghanistan's Uzbek minority and a key military commander of the northern alliance, on Wednesday bid farewell to a core of American special forces who had fought alongside his soldiers in their struggle to reconquer land from the Taliban.  

The ceremony took place at Dostum's private residence, known as Kodu Barq, in the countryside near Mazar-e-sharif.  

Four American Special Force soldiers represented the team of twelve who will be returning to the U.S. shortly to be replaced by a new team.  

Dostum told the men that he and his soldiers would never forget them.  

He said they were life-long friends and he would help them if they needed him inside or outside of Afghanistan.  

The American Special Forces team leader who Dostum addressed as "Captain Mark" praised the general and his soldiers as heroes saying they were honoured to have fought alongside them.  

The team leader also encouraged Dostum and his commanders to maintain the unity with the other members of the Northern Alliance demonstrated in their fight against the Taliban.
