A Hindu mitra of mine is serving in Afghanistan right now as part of US infantry near Kandahar.
He is at FOB Wilson.
Anyway he told me he couldn't find any Hindu landmarks or Hindus in Kandahar so far.
But he met someone near his base who identified himself as a Kalash Kafir. That guy gave him his address in Pak & told him to visit if he was ever in Pak. I didn't get a chance to find out more as he is on a combat mission off the base right now & doesn't have access to net.
Just found it interesting, i have read that there are only about 2000 to 6000 Kalash Kafirs left mostly in Chitral.
