I find this photo troubling. It just doesn’t seem to fit that those ‘evil war mongering baby killers’ should be putting on a puppet show for children in Congo!

U.S. Navy Yoeman 3rd Class Kieshia Beckett, front, and other crewmembers, all from submarine tender USS Emory S. Land (AS 39), perform a puppet show for children of the Jean Felix Tchicaya Primary School in Pointe Noire, Congo, March 22, 2006. Land is currently in port conducting repair training evolutions and community relations projects with host nationals. DoD photo by Petty Officer 2nd Class Jonathan Kulp, U.S. Navy. (Released)
