 A group of cartoonists traveled to Kandahar Airfield, Afghanistan to personally thank service members. These honored guests are members of the National Cartoonist Society and represent various magazines, comic strips and newspapers. The cartoonist's care and attention was completely concentrated on one subject, the soldiers. And all we really want to do is just meet you guys and draw. We're not sacrificing anything, we're on a trip, we hang out together, we're drawing people, we do what we love. But nobody, everybody just is so excited about being able to do it. As part of this USO sponsored event, the artists do personalized sketches for each of the troops. When soldiers saw their cartoon, the response was absolutely animated. It's kind of funny at first how another person views you, I guess. But after looking at it for a little bit, I'm like, oh, I can see that. As the last cartoons were signed, the event that brought an appreciated morale boost cheerfully ended. Specialist Jovi Privo, Kandahar Airfield, Afghanistan.
