 Sailors and other service members stationed at the new Kabul compound in Afghanistan are making a difference in the lives of Afghan students by donating school supplies and volunteering at a local education center. Petty Officer Omar Dominguez brings us more. After completing a couple of last-minute steps like loading up supplies and doing a mission brief, military members made their way to a Kabul school to bring out donations like... All kinds of school supplies and clothes and supplies for the children and for the families of the children that go to the school. As they finished unloading supplies, the group had the chance to interact with some of their kids in the classrooms. It was great and I think that they need the things that we bring them, but I think what they're going to remember is that interaction that we can have with them. And I think if we can affect those kids, that might help us out in the long run. Military members had the chance to run around with kids, but not before the kids showed off their singing skills. We were able to listen to the kids do some songs. I think I heard Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star. In addition to that, we were able to play some soccer, volleyball. I got hit in the face with the ball lines, get to play on the seesaws. We did a lot of different things, just normal recess, but it was a good time. Having the ability to go and present donation boxes and play with the children, it was definitely something different from the normal day-to-day activities that we do here on NKC. While there was a language barrier between the kids and military members, a smile bridges that gap. Petty Officer Martin Dominguez, Kabul, Afghanistan.
