They were accompanied by two British Royal Army Veterinary Corps technicians from the Defence Animal Centre in Melton Mowbray, England, as part of an exchange program. A vet student from the University of Edinburgh, currently training at the RAF Feltwell clinic, also assisted the vets. (U.S. Air Force photo/Karen Abeyasekere)
