Altamonte Springs, Fla. - More than 50 Army Reserve Soldiers from Mission Support Element, Headquaters & Headquarters Company, 143d Sustainment Command (Expeditionary), joined more than 1,000 participants in the Orlando Tunnel to Towers 5K Run & Walk Sept. 9, 2018, at Cranes Roost Park in Altamonte Springs, Fla.
The event honored New York City firefighter Stephen Siller who made the ultimate sacrifice during the 9/11 attacks. Carrying more than 60 pounds of firefighting equipment, Siller ran from Brooklyn Tunnel--closed as a security measure--to the World Trade Center where he laid his life to save the lives of others.
Siller's story inspired nearly half of the 143d ESC Soldiers to don ruck sacks and run alongside hundreds of first responders wearing their full gear.
One 143d ESC Soldier, Spc. Andy Meyreles, honored his civilian and military profession during the race. Serving as an Ammunition and Stock Control and Accounting Specialist, the Hialeah, Fla., native put on his Orange County Fire Rescue helmet, jacket and pants over his Army physical fitness uniform. Meyreles' choice of attire paid homage to all service members and first responders who follow Siller's legendary example.

STUTTGART, Germany - Project officers from U.S. Africa Command’s Counternarcotics and Law Enforcement Assistance Division participated in an orientation and hands-on demonstration, March 10, 2010, where they learned the specifics of a four-piece drug test kit, capable of testing for six different illegal substances in solid, tablet, liquid, or powder form. The demonstration, which took place at the command’s headquarters in Stuttgart, Germany was also filmed for use as a teaching aid to familiarize African law enforcement officials with drug test kits. Drug kits can have a tremendous impact in the hands of law enforcement officers in Africa, serving as a quick tool for law enforcement officials to confirm whether an unknown substance is illegal and needs to be further tested. Early detection can eliminate time and money being spent to do high dollar analysis in laboratories for substances that turn out to be innocuous. AFRICOM’s Counternarcotics Division is planning to assist several African nations with developing this capability in 2010. (U.S. AFRICOM photo)
