Camp Nathan Smith was a former Canadian and later American military base in Kandahar City, Afghanistan. Originally, it was an abandoned fruit factory. In November 2003, the site was reconstructed by US Army soldiers of Charlie Battery, 3rd Battalion, 321st Field Artillery Regiment from Fort Bragg, North Carolina. The camp was turned over to the Canadian Army in 2005 and named for Private Nathan Smith of the 3rd Battalion, Princess Patricia's Canadian Light Infantry. Smith was killed in the Tarnak Farm friendly fire incident. The Canadians left on June 22, 2011.

  • Camp Nathan Smith ist ein Feldlager in Afghanistan der kanadischen und US-amerikanischen Streitkräfte, dass seit dem 15. Oktober 2005 einige Kilometer nordöstlich von Kandahar besteht. Das Camp ist das Hauptquartier des von 2005 bis 2010 von den Kanadiern geführten binationalen PRT Kandahar. Deshalb sind im Camp Nathan Smith nicht nur etwa 2000 kanadische Soldaten, sondern auch kanadische Diplomaten und Entwicklungshelfer untergebracht. Die zweite Nation dieses PRTs sind die USA, die hier ein regionales Hauptquartier und US-Soldaten stationiert haben. Ab Sommer 2010 haben die USA die Leitung des PRT Kandahar und damit auch des Camp Nathan Smith übernommen. (de)

  • Camp Nathan Smith was a former Canadian and later American military base in Kandahar City, Afghanistan. Originally, it was an abandoned fruit factory. In November 2003, the site was reconstructed by US Army soldiers of Charlie Battery, 3rd Battalion, 321st Field Artillery Regiment from Fort Bragg, North Carolina. The camp was turned over to the Canadian Army in 2005 and named for Private Nathan Smith of the 3rd Battalion, Princess Patricia's Canadian Light Infantry. Smith was killed in the Tarnak Farm friendly fire incident. In July 2010, the 1st Brigade Combat Team, 4th Infantry Division (United States), took command of Camp Nathan Smith. On June 19, 2011 a Transfer of Authority Ceremony took place on Camp Nathan Smith signifying the end of 1st Brigade Combat Team, 4th Infantry Division’s deployment and the beginning of its sister brigade 2nd Brigade Combat Team, 4th Infantry Division’s partnership with the Government of the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan and the Afghanistan National Security Forces. The Canadians left on June 22, 2011. On October 27, 2011, a coordinated attack from insurgents within the city occurred at Camp Nathan Smith (CNS). Although one interpreter, a member of SFA Team 5, was killed and eight ISAF soldiers were wounded, the attack was deemed unsuccessful. Camp Nathan Smith was located in the heart of Kandahar City, north of Highway 1 and south of the Canal. Its location in the heart of Kandahar City allowed ISAF forces to quickly respond to enemy attacks during the early years of the Afghan war. As Kandahar City became more peaceful its purpose changed to a place for meetings to discuss city governance, developmental projects, and to train Afghan police officers. There was a small Post Exchange, a local bazaar, an aid station, a gym, a water reservoir and two dining facilities at Camp Nathan Smith. One of the dining facilities was named after Army SSG Sheldon Tate. Tate died July 13, 2010, while repelling an insurgent attack on an Afghan police compound in Kandahar City. On July 31, 2013 Camp Nathan Smith was transferred to the Afghan Uniform Police by the US Army ( 1 Armored, 1st Brigade Combat Team). The Afghan Uniform Police already had a quick reaction force at the camp, and it intended to move two more police companies there. The Afghans also planned on developing a school for women at the camp. Basic infrastructure was left behind, including generators and a working fuel point. (en)
