Engineers with the Mongolian Armed Forces conduct

Engineers with the Mongolian Armed Forces conduct preparation work on the rooftop of Erdmiin Oyun High School in the Nalaikh district of Ulaanbaatar, July 20. The MAF engineers are working alongside U.S. Marine and Washington Army National Guard counterparts to complete the school renovation project as part of Exercise Khaan Quest 2013, a regularly scheduled, multinational exercise co-sponsored this year by U.S. Marine Corps Forces Pacific, and hosted annually by the MAF. The intent of the ongoing engineering civic action program (ENCAP) project in Nalaikh is to provide valuable training for Mongolian and U.S. armed forces by boosting their interoperability, as well as demonstrate a mutual commitment to local community.
