U.S. Army Sgt. 1st Class Roy Lowes of Wolfeboro, N.H., a member of the New Hampshire Army National Guard Medical Detachment, checks medical records on his computer while Air Force Lt. Col. Stephanie Riley of Concord, N.H., takes a blood pressure reading of an Army National Guard Soldier during sick call procedures of Orient Shield 11 in northern Japan in early November. Orient Shield 11 officially kicked off Nov. 2 and concludes Nov. 11. Training between U.S. armed forces and the Japanese military are essential since a security agreement 50 years ago bound both countries to support each other from enemy attack.
