Wallace Nelson, 31, told AFP his interaction with his interpreters and other Afghans had persuaded him that Islam "is pretty much the only religion that makes sense to me."

They had explained that the extreme Taliban religious movement "takes things way out of proportion," Nelson told AFP by telephone from his base in the eastern province of Kunar.

"I really wish everything would stop and we would be able to live together and be happy," he said after the ceremony attended by district officials, including the area's Afghan army commander, and tribal elders.

Many soldiers lose their religion in war zones. Kudos to him for finding something to help him deal with his stress.
