Air Force civil engineers and civilian contractors back a portable shelter into a lot at Royal Air Force Fairford, England. The shelter is then lifted with a crane (not shown) and lowered into its final position. The population of the English base has expanded three fold in the last two months due to the influx of people in support of NATO Operation Allied Force. The portable shelters will be used to augment existing dormitories (not shown)
