KUWAIT CITY, Kuwait — Spectators, including soldiers from Camp Arifjan, Kuwait, cheer their favorite camels as they race to the finish. The soldiers had an opportunity to observe the camel race and ride a camel during a morale, welfare and recreation (MWR) cultural event in Kabad, southwest of Kuwait City, March 31. Camel racing is a centuries-old cultural tradition and customary pastime of Kuwait. The camel racing season begins in late October and ends sometime in April. However, depending on the weather, it may begin earlier or end later in the year. (U.S. Army photo by Master Sgt. Daniel Palermo)
