    Staff Sgt. Carlos Vega, 610th Engineer Support Company, smooths hand rails on a ramp built for Afghan personnel at Fort McCoy, Wisonsin, Nov. 3, 2021. These ramps are meant to help facilitate entering buildings for Afghans who have difficulty walking up stairs. The Department of Defense, through U.S. Northern Command, and in support of the Department of Homeland Security, is providing transportation, temporary housing, medical screening, and general support for at least 50,000 Afghan evacuees at suitable facilities, in permanent or temporary structures, as quickly as possible. This initiative provides Afghan personnel essential support at secure locations outside Afghanistan. (U.S. Army photo by Sgt. Elliot Alagueuzian, 7th Mobile Public Affairs Detachment)
