Former Yankee Jeff Nelson is going to Afghanistan

According to this story in the Seattle Post-Intelligencer, Nelson is going there with a group of former major leaguers on a goodwill tour.

"I was supposed to be going in April, but something came up in terms of military security," he said. "When they called back, the Yankees and the Mariners had donated all this gear for me to take, and I still wanted to go."
