    Oklahoma Army National Guard (OKARNG) members of 1st Squadron, 180th Cavalry Regiment, 45th Infantry Brigade Combat Team, and officials at New Kabul Compound (NKC) hold a dedication ceremony at the newly remodeled NKC flight terminal on Friday, Aug. 31, 2018 in Kabul, Afghanistan.

    A framed memorial plaque dedicated to Sergeant Buddy James Hughie of the US Army, who was killed in action on 19 February 2007 in Kamdesh, Afghanistan. The plaque features a color photograph of the soldier in uniform and detailed biographical and service information. It is mounted on a light-colored wall with a wooden frame.
    A framed sign mounted on a light-colored wall identifying a location called 'Hughie Terminal' with the motto 'We Can... We Will.' The sign features a military-style shield emblem with crossed rifles, a sword/trident, mountains, wheat stalks, and red and green color sections. The frame is constructed from light, unfinished pine wood.
    A young male soldier in U.S. Army woodland camouflage BDU (Battle Dress Uniform) stands with arms crossed in front of a brick building with a blue-painted doorframe. He wears a matching camouflage patrol cap and has a name tape partially visible on his left chest and an 'ARMY' tape on his right chest. A handwritten notice board is visible in the background to his left.
    Three military personnel in camouflage uniforms are gathered inside what appears to be a forward operating base facility, observing a memorial plaque mounted on a wall. The plaque features a portrait photograph and text, appearing to be a dedication to a fallen soldier. The setting includes a beverage refrigerator and basic interior furnishings consistent with a military base common area.
    Three U.S. Army soldiers in MultiCam/OCP uniforms are standing outdoors near a building entrance. Two of the soldiers are wearing distinctive black cavalry Stetson hats with crossed sabers insignia, indicating they belong to a cavalry unit. One soldier on the right appears to be reading from a document, suggesting a formal ceremony or briefing is taking place.
    Four U.S. Army soldiers in MultiCam/OCP camouflage uniforms stand with heads bowed and helmets/patrol caps removed in what appears to be a moment of prayer or reflection outside the 'Hughie Terminal.' The terminal sign displays the motto 'We Can... We Will.' along with a military unit patch. A 'No Weapons' sign is visible on the door to the right.
