KISSIMMEE, FLA. – Four Soldiers from Mission Support Element, 143d Sustainment Command (Expeditionary), joined thousands of service members, veterans and their families who gathered at the Westgate Resort in Kissimmee for free food, live music and heartfelt fellowship during the second annual Military Appreciation Weekend Concert held May 5, 2018.
Westgate Resorts’ CEO David Siegel opened the property to more than 1,500 military families for a complimentary, three-night stay that culminated in a free concert that featured the Chris Weaver Band.
Alongside the complimentary concessions and children activities, the 143d ESC Soldiers set up and managed two static displays featuring one of the unit’s Humvees and Light Medium Tactical Vehicle. The vehicles attracted hundreds of children, dozens of young adults and even a few veterans who climbed aboard the driver’s seat, donned an Advanced Combat Helmet and put their hands on the steering wheel.
In addition to the dozens of pop, rock, country and R&B songs played by the Chris Weaver Band, the concert offered a military flair complete with the presentation of the colors by Veterans of Foreign Wars Command Post 4287, the singing of the national anthem by American Idol contestant Alyssa Raghu and a helicopter flyover conducted by the Osceola County Sheriff’s Office.
Among the long list of VIPs was Florida Gov. Rick Scott who shook hands and took pictures with the 143d ESC Soldiers.
The concert concluded with fireworks that illuminated the night sky, its colorful patterns bouncing off thousands of fluttering flags and smiling faces.

Economic growth has slowed down considerably, unemployment is on the rise, and the ongoing insecurity hampers investment. All these provoke many of the talented and educated Afghans to migrate.

Scarborough port.
We left home around 3 in the morning to catch the dawn at 4.30.
The roads were empty and we saw the light changing, as we got closer.
A few loners on the promenade, with doggies.
The light was gorgeous.
The air was cool and fresh.
I saw these wooden post glowing in the sun.
Alongside the quayside, they are supporting the wall.
Have a day full of peace and thank you for your comments. M, (*_*)

Troops from the Allied Rapid Reaction Corps Support Battalion dig mini trenches during rain showers that lasted several hours October 5 at RAF St. Mawgan. The rain created several challenges for the headquarters, including slippery walkways, leaking tents and pools of water near equipment. Regardless of the weather, members of the ARRC, 16 Air Assault Brigade, JFC-Naples and various other elements of NATO Forces came together for Exercise Noble Ledger to certify that the ARRC is capable and ready to assume command of the NATO Response Force mission throughout 2013. Taking command of NRF means that the ARRC will be rapidly deployable and could be called upon at any moment to deploy worldwide in support of combat or humanitarian relief efforts.

United in support...
From Hurricane Sandy to Sandy Hook, from the Boston bombings to Philadelphia's building collapse this past June, this has been the year of the first responder.
We invite you to stand with American communities as the World Affairs Council presents its 2013 Atlas Award in recognition of, and gratitude to, the men and women who so bravely respond when disaster strikes. The Council invites these heroes to be guests at this special event as we pay tribute to those who serve our communities by being the first on the scene in critical situations.
And acknowledging sacrifice...
This unique event will acknowledge, in a meaningful way, the sacrifices made by first responders. To this end, your generosity will be reflected in a gift to the Newtown Lions Club Foundation -- Sandy Hook Elementary Fund and the Philadelphia Hero Thrill Show.
Governor of Connecticut Dannel P. Malloy accepted the 2013 Atlas Award on behalf of our nation's first responders.
The Council thanks its sponsors for this event:
AMETEK, Inc., CDI Corporation, PECO, Progressive Business Publications, The Satell Center for Executive Education, UGI Corporation, Aqua, and technology partner Comcast/NBC10.

London's Air Ambulance lands on Turnham Green in Chiswick on Tuesday June 10 2014. It took just six minutes to fly in the Advanced Trauma Team from the Royal London Hospital in Whitechapel, responding to a 1:50pm call about an incident on a nearby site which left three people injured, one seriously, after debris reportedly fell from a crane while it was being moved. One man was taken by road ambulance to St Mary's Hospital in Paddington accompanied by a member of the Air Ambulance medical team. The helicopter was met by police on the ground who took the hospital medics on to the scene. The helicopter circled twice before landing as sunbathers and others were cleared from the grass near Chiswick High Road.

This is a photograph from the 3rd annual hosting of the Coralstown National School 5KM Road Race and Fun Run was held at Coralstown, Co. Westmeath, Ireland on Wednesday 29th April 2015 at 19:30. This proceeds of the race were in aid of support for Coralstown National School. The race started and finished outside of Coralstown Church (beside the school - see Google StreetMap goo.gl/maps/oWGeu). The National School provided the facilities for changing rooms, toilets, registration, and parking. The race was organised by local athlete and Mullingar Harriers clubman Mattie Glennon. Mattie and a huge team of helpers and volunteers organised a wonderful evening's racing. The course was on small country roads and tarmac canal bank. Coralstown is located just off the M4 motorway between junctions 12 Kinnegad and 13 The Downs. It is approximately 7 miles east of Mullingar. There was a very strong headwind for runners between 2km and 4km marks which slowed times down significantly on previous years.
Well done to everyone involved. This was a great evening with a real sense of community spirit at the race. Spot prizes and refreshments were offered afterwards in the National School. The race event was notable for the very large number of local school children who took part in the 5KM.
We have a full set of photographs from the race tonight on Flickr at this album location: www.flickr.com/photos/peterm7/sets/72157652257403301/

Please email petermooney78 AT gmail DOT com with the links to the photographs you would like to obtain a full resolution copy of. We also ask race organisers, media, etc to ask for permission before use of our images for flyers, posters, etc. We reserve the right to refuse a request.
In summary please remember when requesting photographs from us - If you are using the photographs online all we ask is for you to provide a link back to our Flickr set or Flickr pages. You will find the link above clearly outlined in the description text which accompanies this photograph.

Let's get a bit technical: We use Creative Commons Licensing for these photographs
We use the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License for all our photographs here in this photograph set. What does this mean in reality?
The explaination is very simple.
Attribution- anyone using our photographs gives us an appropriate credit for it. This ensures that people aren't taking our photographs and passing them off as their own. This usually just mean putting a link to our photographs somewhere on your website, blog, or Facebook where other people can see it.
ShareAlike – anyone can use these photographs, and make changes if they like, or incorporate them into a bigger project, but they must make those changes available back to the community under the same terms.
Above all what Creative Commons aims to do is to encourage creative sharing. See some examples of Creative Commons photographs on Flickr: www.flickr.com/creativecommons/
I ran in the race - but my photograph doesn't appear here in your Flickr set! What gives?
As mentioned above we take these photographs as a hobby and as a voluntary contribution to the running community in Ireland. Very often we have actually ran in the same race and then switched to photographer mode after we finished the race. Consequently, we feel that we have no obligations to capture a photograph of every participant in the race. However, we do try our very best to capture as many participants as possible. But this is sometimes not possible for a variety of reasons:
►You were hidden behind another participant as you passed our camera
►Weather or lighting conditions meant that we had some photographs with blurry content which we did not upload to our Flickr set
►There were too many people - some races attract thousands of participants and as amateur photographs we cannot hope to capture photographs of everyone
►We simply missed you - sorry about that - we did our best!
You can email us petermooney78 AT gmail DOT com to enquire if we have a photograph of you which didn't make the final Flickr selection for the race. But we cannot promise that there will be photograph there. As alternatives we advise you to contact the race organisers to enquire if there were (1) other photographs taking photographs at the race event or if (2) there were professional commercial sports photographers taking photographs which might have some photographs of you available for purchase. You might find some links for further information above.
Don't like your photograph here?
That's OK! We understand!
If, for any reason, you are not happy or comfortable with your picture appearing here in this photoset on Flickr then please email us at petermooney78 AT gmail DOT com and we will remove it as soon as possible. We give careful consideration to each photograph before uploading.
I want to tell people about these great photographs!
Great! Thank you! The best link to spread the word around is probably http://www.flickr.com/peterm7/sets

WASHINGTON, D.C. — – Army Sergeant Norman Lettieri, a soldier with the 252nd Military Police Company from Cleveland, Tennessee, was one of the many National Guardsmen providing crowd control support at D.C. Metro Subway Stations for the Presidential Inauguration. The 57th Presidential Inauguration was held in Washington D.C. on Monday, January 21, 2013.
During the 10-day inaugural period approximately 6,000 National Guard personnel from over 30 states and territories worked for Joint Task Force-District of Columbia, providing traffic control, crowd management, transportation, communication, medical and logistical support as well as marching in the Inaugural Parade. More than 13,000 Active Duty, National Guard and Reserve military members were involved in the inauguration.
The Inauguration included the Presidential Swearing-in Ceremony, Inaugural Address, Inaugural Parade and numerous inaugural balls and galas honoring the elected President of the United States. The Inaugural Parade procession of more than 8,000 people that started at Constitution Avenue continuing down Pennsylvania Avenue to the White House included ceremonial military regiments, citizen groups, marching bands and floats. The presidential inaugural parade included members from all branches of the armed forces of the United States.
Since 1789, the U.S. Armed Forces have participated in this important American tradition honoring our Commander in Chief. The parade is organized by the Joint Task Force-National Capital Region, and participants are selected by the Presidential Inaugural Committee.
