Photo of the Day – Compassion

An extension of the Photo of the Day from yesterday.

Staff Sgt. Ibrahima Haidara, squad leader, Regional Command (South) protective service detail, 82nd Airborne Division, from Washington, hands toys out to Afghan children through the gates of the governor’s palace during a mission Nov. 2. Haidara and his team routinely escort the leadership of RC(S) to various locations within the region for meetings with Afghan leaders, securing the routes they travel on and the locations of the meetings. During these missions, the team has frequent interactions with Afghan military, police and civilians, particularly children. Photo by SGT Amanda Hils.

Photo of the Day – Mah Deuce

Just a cool photo because I love the M2 and silhouette shots.


Soldiers of the Personal Security Detachment, 37th Infantry Brigade Combat Team, mount an M2 .50-caliber machine gun before conducting night fire drills during training at Camp Shelby Joint Forces Training Center, Miss. The 37th IBCT is deploying to Afghanistan in support of Operation Enduring Freedom.

If you like the M2 as much as I do, you can also get an awesome new shirt on pre-order from Ranger Up HERE.
