Camp Salerno / Forward Operating Base Salerno, is located just north of Khowst. The facility was initially occupied by the 3rd Battalion, 505th Parachute Infantry Regiment, and they named it for the beach head that the 505th parachuted onto on September 14, 1943.

Camp Salerno is in the province of Khost, close to the border with Pakistan, where hundreds of Taleban and al-Qaeda fighters are believed to be hiding
