This before and after photo shows the difference between the beginning and end phase of construction project Logcamp at Camp Hanson in Marjah, Helmand province, Afghanistan. Once complete, Logcamp will consist of 36 state-of-the-art all-weather tents, fully functional bathrooms and showers, and a brand new Internet and recreation center. “It gives the Marines more room to live in, a wall locker, an actual bed and mattress, chairs and a few other things that will go in later,” said Capt. Andrew E. Szwejbka, the camp commandant for Camp Hanson, with 2nd Battalion, 9th Marine Regiment. “There’s going to be a lot more living space and a lot more room for the Marines to properly store their gear. There’s no doubt that it’ll increase morale.” (U.S. Marine Corps photo illustration by Lance Cpl. Andrew Johnston)
