Martin Janowski (left), head joint staff intelligence director for NATO Force Integration Unit Lithuania, and Kęstutis Markevičius (center), a forester, in planting a tree in the Padauguva Forest near Vilkija, Lithuania, June 21, 2024. The forest is a historical site of the Lithuanian Forest Brothers, a group of partisans who fought Soviet insurgents from 1944 to 1953 during the occupation of the Baltic States. The 1st Cavalry Division and Task Force Pegasus recognize the importance of connecting with local communities throughout Europe. Through community engagements, they continue to strengthen the bonds between local communities, assuring NATO allies of the partnership and cooperation. (U.S. Army photo by Sgt. Cecil Elliott)
