U.S. Army Spc. Kristian Kelly, a small arms artillery repair specialist from the 1st Battalion, 194th Field Artillery, shows off the handmade gym he and his fellow Soldiers built from concrete and scrap materials at the site of their Counter-Rocket, Artillery, Mortar gun at Al Asad Air Base, Iraq, on June 7, 2021. Kelly spent around 2,500 hours inside the small, secure compound, ensuring the operability of the C-RAM as part of a vital air defense mission to protect Al Asad from enemy rockets and drones.
