I saw this little guy being yanked back out of the path of oncoming traffic along the main street in northern Marjeh one hot afternoon.  Scared me to death.  The afghan military officer who grabbed him in the nick of time smacked him on the back of the head, just to drive the lesson home.  It brought a tear to his eyes momentarily, but I believe the little guy won’t wander into another street without thinking.  Then I saw a the soldier smile softly as he turned away.
