U.S. Army Spc. Kimberly Ortiz of the California Army National Guard’s Alpha Company, 223rd Military Intelligence Battalion, 115th Regional Support Group, stands proudly in front of her unit May 5 at the Solano Food Bank in Fairfield, California, as her peers wear face masks Ortiz and her mother provided. In April the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommended using cloth face coverings to help slow the spread of COVID-19. Ortiz’s unit didn’t obtain masks immediately, so she initiated her mother, Los Angeles resident Paulina Hernandez, a longtime seamstress, to help. Hernandez responded and made almost 100 masks for her daughter’s unit. (Army National Guard photo by Staff Sgt. Eddie Siguenza)
