Day 146: One

"One Team, One Fight!" or "Army of One"...catchy, motivating cliches coined to foster a sense of unity in the war against terrorism. Over the last couple of months, our Navy Garrison support team has made a concerted effort to find unity amidst a diverse group of individuals in order to be a team of true "force multipliers" (another clever little phrase from the Army). And what better time to celebrate and reflect on the milestones that we, as a unified Navy team, have achieved than during the holiday season. Everyone gets along at Christmas! So here is a rare photo op of all Navy personnel aboard the Camp Clark quarterdeck looking happy as ever...we practically look like family!


Also, in the spirit of unity, we shared our Christmas traditions with our Afghan Army Garrison counterparts. We introduced them to traditions such as gift giving and the consumption of yummy care package cookies. I especially had a wonderful time expressing my appreciation for the hard work that my counterpart, Colonel Shah Zadgull, was putting into the clinic. I think he really liked my Christmas gift box with special mention to the bright blue fuzzy pillow!
