  • CHEMERIL, Kenya -- August 15, 2006 --  A camel looks up form his drink from the Chemeril Dam oasis as a local man rides by on his bike. <br />
Nearby, as part of Exercise Natural Fire, over 2000 sheep and goats were vaccinated against Sheep Pox and Pleural Pneumonia today at a Veterinary Civil Assistance Project (VETCAP) operated by U.S., Kenyan, Tanzanian and Ugandan veterinarians and doctors.  <br />
Natural Fire 2006, a 10-day multi-lateral training exercise involving Kenyan, Tanzanian, Ugandan and United States service members, ran Aug. 8-19 and was the largest combined exercise between Eastern African Community nations and the U.S to date. The exercise provided medical, civil and engineering civic affairs programs to rural areas in Tanzania, Uganda and Kenya as well as held military to military training exercises, which helped all participants better respond to humanitarian crises.

  • A woman of Alaili Dadda poses for the camera while U.S. military troops ask questions of the village elders. In order to make this picture the photographer befriended a young man who asked the woman if the photographer could make the picture. She agreed, and looked at the camera. This was uncommon.  Djiboutian women are very  shy and deferent to men in most cases. It is considered rude to look at women and speaking to them is also considered inappropriate. <br />

The indoor training environment gave the soldiers the chance to practice the needed skills through a trap door --  dropping ten feet to a padded floor. QM1 Brixey said, "Most all of the guys picked it up pretty quick -- but I'm glad we did it here first."

  • ARTA, Djibouti -- March 25, 2006 -- Djiboutian Army Sgt. Mohamed Mead Indayar is in charge of the automobile maintenance garage at the Djiboutian military base at Arta. <br />
The U.S. military is providing a two-week auto maintenance training program here. Through a translator Sgt. Indayar said, "I want my men to learn more about engines and be able to see how things work. I would like to have them come to the American camp and see how men work there." Sergeant Indayar took a military training course in auto maintenance from the U.S. Marines in 1996 and has kept up his skills by maintaining the camp's machinery since then. It is challenging for him because he does not have proper tools or access to new parts to replace broken components. Of the ten vehicles in his motorpool, none are currently operational although he has more than fifteen men willing to work on them.

  • September 7, 2008 -- NAS BRUNSWICK, Maine. The U.S. Navy Blue Angels gave a rousing performance to over 100,000 guests on Sunday afternoon at The Great State of Maine Airshow. Their performance on Saturday was cancelled due to low cloud cover. The airshow visited Naval Air Station Brunswick for the last time this weekend, bringing The U.S. Navy Blue Angels, The U.S. Army Golden Knights and a wide variety of static displays and interactive exhibits. The show drew over 150,000 people over three days with no mishaps among the performers and no emergencies among the attendees. .Because NAS Brunswick is scheduled to be closed in 2011 by the Base Realignment Commission, there will not be another Navy-sponsored airshow at this location. Yet, the Local Redevelopment Authority, responsible for managing the property after the departure of the Navy,  has included an airshow on a list of possible future uses for the property.
