An MP from the 511th Military Police Company, Fort Drum, New York, sits on the ground with five Somali nationals. The Somalis were hired to drive the news media from place to place. Three 500 pounds lie in front of the men in the foreground. They sit outside the entrance to one of 38 bunkers (not shown) found by MPs just north of Mogadishul, Somalia. This mission is in direct support of Operation Restore Hope
