    A pallet of donated books is off loaded from USNS Big Horn at the Port of Djibouti, March 20, 2009. U.S. Marines with the 9th Provisional Security Force organized the book collection with the not-for-profit group Books For Africa. A total of 22,000 books will be distributed to schools throughout Djibouti. The service members of Combined Joint Task Force - Horn of Africa, head quartered in Djibouti, employ an indirect approach to counter violent extremism. Through a strategy of cooperative conflict prevention, the task force helps build the internal capacities of countries at risk to prevail against extremists exploiting instability.
