  • CAMP LEMONIER, Djibouti -- 6/21/2006 -- U.S. Navy Quartermaster 1st Class Jonah Brixey guides a soldier from the 1/294 Guam Army National Guard Charlie Company through the trap door as part of a  "Fast Rope" training. Fast Roping is the process of sliding safely to the ground on a rope from a low-hovering helicopter. 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."

  • NORTH YARMOUTH, Maine,  -- 1/17/16 --  Tatyana Shakhray, 18, guides a fellow "Fire and Ice" camper camper during target practice at Lakeside Archery in North Yarmouth on Sunday. <br />
23 child victims of burns came together in southern Maine over the weekend as part of the 10th Fire & Ice Burn Survivors Winter Camp put on by the Portland Firefighters Children’s Burn Foundation. Portland area firefighters served as camp counselors - bringing the teens to the Camden Snow Bowl, Lakeside Archery and several other regional locations for group events and personal support activities.  <br />
As an 18-year-old camper, this is Shakhray's last year to participate. She hopes to be selected as a counselor next year.  <br />
Fire and Ice started in 2005 with four burn victims and nine counselors. This year there were 23 youth campers from all over New England participating in a three-day event. Campers came together by doing series of activities in which they bond and become close friends. "These kids have all been through similar traumatic expereinces," said Portland Firefighter and counselor Sheldon Gregiore.  <br />
A first-time youth camper (whose identity is being kept anonymous) said, "All I can say is, burned people rule!"  <br />

  • October 15, 2008 -- GULFPORT, Miss. -- U.S. Navy sailors practice firing on paper targets from three yards on the first day of live firing with the 9mm Beretta Pistol. Sailors train in handgun marksmanship at Woolmarket pistol and rifle range as part of Expeditionary Combat Skills School (ECS).  .The ECS school is designed to build a basic level of battlefield competence for sailors from the Navy's newly formed Expeditionary Combat  Combat Command  (NECC) community. The students have a wide range of precision modern warfare skills. Because the Navy is supporting missions ashore more than ever, there is a significant need for sailors to gain land-based combat skills. The aim of the school is to provide NECC sailors basic warfighting and survival capabilities. Photo by Mass Communication Specialist 1st Class Roger S. Duncan.  (RELEASED)

  • April 18, 2009 -- BATH, Maine. Seth Moody, a professional arborist from Caribou and Camden Maine climbs 42 feet straight up to a ring a bell while competing in a tree climbing competition in Library Park in Bath on Saturday afternoon. Six professional arborists from around New England raced against each other in several different events.

Competitor Bear Scovil of Manchester Vt. said, "This event requires more agility than it does strength. You'll see the best climbers develop a rhythm of swinging back and forth as they move up the rope."
