Capturing Combat
Tech. Sgt. Stacia Zachary, U.S. Air Forces Central Combat Camera combat correspondent, takes notes as she covers Joint Terminal Air Control airmen from the 807th Air Support Operations Squadron, Forward Operating Base Lagman. The NCO is deployed from Team Eglin Public Affairs, Eglin Air Force Base, Fla. Sergeant Zachary, an award-winning PA journalist, was selected to serve with Combat Camera personnel who deploy to the most austere environments at a moment's notice to capture still and motion imagery of military operations. The Airmen she is covering in this picture were making sure a dirt landing zone in the Zabul province of Afghanistan was safe for a cargo carrying C-130 Hercules to land and provided the aircrew with any pertinent information via radio communications. The aircrew was delivering needed cargo for one of the nearby military outposts. (U.S. Air Force photo/Master Sgt. Adrian Cadiz)
