U.S. service members surround Qatar Army Maj. Gen. Hamad bin Ali Al Attiyah, at the general's beach home in Qatar, April 20. Attiyah, Qatar armed forces chief of staff, invited over 400 service members to enjoy beach activities, water crafts, falcon exhibitions, camel rides, all-terrain vehicles and Arabic cuisine. Most of the servicemembers were participating in the U.S. Central Command rest and recuperation pass program at Camp As Sayliyah, a U.S. military installation in Qatar. Since its inception in 2004, the program has provided over 155,000 war fighters, serving in Southwest Asia, a brief respite from combat operations.
