Byron Greff, 3rd Battalion Princess Patricia's Canadian Light Infantry, during a ramp ceremony on Bagram Air Field Oct. 31. Greff was killed in an Oct. 29 Taliban attack when a vehicle packed with explosives rammed into the armored passenger Rhino Greff was traveling in. Greff served as a NATO Training Mission advisor and instructor, developing trainers to educate Afghan Army service members. Approximately 920 Canadian forces personnel serve in advisory and support roles at training camps and headquarters locations primarily in the Kabul area. Smaller contingents serve at training institutions in Mazar-e-Sharif in northern Afghanistan and in Herat in western Afghanistan. The mission's mandate extends to March 2014.
