The Northern Alliance fighters know the terrain and the language, and U.S. forces haven?t trained with them, aren?t used to communicating with them on the battlefield. The Marines will probably end up doing what it makes sense for them to do - provide technical support, protect the airfield, maybe cut off an escape route if it?s needed.
