“They might have a hundred noble qualities,/but the world would judge them only by their foibles” (Moliére – The Misanthrope). This “creed” of the second rotation of the HUN PRT is literally carved into a rock in Camp Pannonia, the base of the Hungarian PRT. Arriving in Pol-e Khomri after the trailblazing first contingent, the second rotation was working in the spirit of this thought all along, and perhaps this was also among the reasons why it spent one of the most successful six months of the provincial reconstruction teams in the Asian country.
PRT-2 , February 2007 – September 2007.
The withdrawal of the 13th rotation of the Hungarian Provincial Reconstruction Team (HUN PRT) in March 2013 will close a chapter in the role of the Hungarian Defence Forces in Afghanistan. Our series introduces the seven-year story of the Hungarian contingents participating in the reconstruction and normalization of life in the Asian country which has been in war for decades, a story of difficulties, successes and tragedies.
