Not being a combat photographer or really a photographer at all I saw the war in a different way. The Army and Military strives to have everyone be the same. You dress the same, look the same, act the same...it's about being a team. On the mission you must be a unit, the unit of a platoon going out and accomplishing a task or goal to the big mission which you are a small part of the whole.
Life on the FOB is generally status quo...from one day to the next...if you survive, but your chance of survival increases if you're a synchronised team; think like a team and react like a team.
These photos were taken on FOB Joyce during the TOA (Transfer Of Authority) from the 101st division to the 25th division.
I was grateful to see moments when even in a simplistic way one could be an individual.
