Yeah, you caught the joke on the Russian name Katya!
Plus I like cats, so...and a cat goes together with a Sher, so I made up this name!
No, no I am not from Wardak.
Only Allah directed me to find this family to take me into the fighting - yes, DURING the Soviet war. I was present at some heavy battles.
The Soviets were terrible and everyone has forgotten this.
That's why I think the Forum members need to have some of this era explained to them, and its heroic figures like Amin and his family.
What was the word you wrote in Pashto?
Does it say Catya? If so I will save it, it looks really neat in Arabic letters!
I want to be sure first though.
