    Love the expression of happiness on the soldier's face, and the way the boys crowd around her.

    Love this photo!

    Funny how the kids are not crowding around the male soldiers--maybe she sets them more at ease? The yellow balloon the kid in the middle is holding is the icing on the cake.

    You're absolutely right! Male soldiers get no following like this unless they are handing out candy...mwink.gif

    She has a couple of things going her way...she's obviously cute, so that helps. Plus she's an adult female who isn't covering her face under a burqua, She's American and a soldier. She had quite the following, for sure! iloveyou.gif

    I thought the same thing--It must not be everyday that the male boys can see a tough female out in the open, carrying a deadly weapon no less, yet she is so friendly.
