	The Way It Was - 3
		I thought over the tactical problem, two methods were possible, one was the crossing of the river upstream, preferably at night, establishing a firm base and advancing towards the bridge, the resources for this were available with the division commander.
		The second method was placing a company, on the home bank of the river and flying a company from Dacca to the far bank of the river, turning the helicopters around and lifting the company placed on the home bank, the whole concentration would take about twenty minutes from the time the first company landed.
		When the car stopped the man walked up to the vehicle and peeped inside, he was from the Tochi Scouts, he identified us and gave a signal, the commander stepped up to the vehicle and apologised for laying the ambush and aiming his weapons at us, we thanked our lucky stars that we had stopped.

	Snowfall data collection stations proposed -DAWN - National; September 15, 2005
		The stations will help the hydrology division to get update weather forecasts, record rain and snowfall in high altitude areas and monitor flood level in various rivers in the NWFP and tribal areas.
		They said that most of the rivers originated from the upper parts of the NWFP and its high altitude areas received heavy snowfall, therefore, the government should equip the hydrology division with its own monitoring facilities.
		The proposed places are Siren and Kurhar rivers in Abbottabad, Haro river at Jabar in Haripur district, Khwazakhela in Swat district, Panjkora river at Arand bridge in Lower Dir, downstream Warsak dam in Kabul river, Kurram river near Thal and Tochi river in the North Waziristan Agency.
