A brush up

SAPANG BATO, Angeles City, Philippines - Staff Sgt. Muriel Diaz (left), a native of Dededo Guam and currently assigned to the 36th Force Support Squadron, Andersen Air Force Base, Guam, and Hatfield, Pa. native, Staff Sgt. Jaimin Patel of the 554 Redhorse Squadron, Andersen AFB, Guam paint the window panes of a school building while they and other Airmen paint the Sapang Bato Elementary School located in Angeles City Philippines on April 9. The Airmen pulled their own money together in order to buy painting supplies and then took a break from Balikatan 2011 to volunteer and spread good will to the Sapang Bato community. Balikatan is a regularly scheduled exercise focusing on interoperability of forces and training and assistance in humanitarian and civic assistance operations. The experience gained in Balikatan complements our security assistance program and will improve upon existing AFP counter-terrorism programs. (U.S. Air Force photo/Master Sgt. Cohen A. Young)
