    210629-N-MO469-1011 YIGO, Guam (Jun. 29, 2021) In a display of interoperability, Seabees assigned to Naval Mobile Construction Battalion (NMCB) 11 Det. Guam work together with Airmen assigned to 554th RED HORSE Squadron to place and detonate C4 explosives in order to blast rock for crushing operations. Rock crushing operations enable Naval Construction Force units to independently produce aggregate in order to perform tasks such as Airfield Damage Repair and Port Damage Repair to enhance fleet maneuverability. NMCB 11 Det. Guam is forward-deployed to execute construction, humanitarian assistance, and theater security cooperation in the U.S. 7th Fleet areas of operation.

    A person in military-style camouflage pants and an olive green t-shirt is kneeling on rocky, sparse terrain while working with wiring connected to a red device on the ground. The setting appears to be a rocky quarry or training area with large white and rust-colored boulders in the background. The individual appears to be conducting a technical task involving cables and the red equipment.
    Two military personnel in different uniforms are kneeling on a rocky, gravel-covered terrain working with wiring or cord. One wears Army/multicam camouflage pattern while the other wears Navy Working Uniform (NWU) digital blue/gray pattern, suggesting a joint-service operation. They appear to be handling what may be detonation cord or electrical wiring near a red equipment case.

    A military personnel member in camouflage uniform and protective mask operates or monitors a large dark-green industrial machine, likely a rock crusher or aggregate processing unit. A military-green front-end loader with its bucket raised is positioned to dump rocky material into the machine's hopper. The operation appears to take place on a concrete pad in an outdoor military or construction site with vegetation in the background.
    A military front-end loader in olive drab/green paint is dumping material into a large dark-colored hopper or processing unit.

    The image shows a mobile rock crushing and screening operation set up on a concrete or compacted surface. Heavy industrial machinery including crushers, conveyors, and screening equipment are actively operating, evidenced by visible dust/particulate emissions. The site appears to be an aggregate processing or quarry operation situated near a treeline under overcast skies.
    The image shows an active industrial or military construction/processing site with multiple conveyor belt systems transferring granular material (likely gravel, sand, or crushed aggregate) into dump trucks. At least two trucks are visible — one white civilian dump truck on the left and one olive-green military-style dump truck on the right — both receiving material from elevated conveyor belts. The setting appears to be an outdoor staging area with a sandy/gravel surface, surrounded by trees in the background.

A military-green front-end loader is actively depositing material into the bed of a civilian dump truck, while a military tactical truck (likely an LMTV or similar) is parked nearby. At least two personnel in military-style uniforms are visible overseeing the operation.
    A military-marked wheel loader is actively loading material into a white civilian dump truck at what appears to be a quarry or excavation site. The loader, painted in olive drab green with visible military identification markings, is operated by a person visible in the cab. The background shows exposed rock faces with reddish-brown and white stone, with green vegetation visible at the top.
    A white dump truck is actively unloading gravel or crushed stone aggregate at what appears to be a construction or materials staging area. The truck's bed is raised at a steep angle, with material cascading down near existing piles of light-colored crushed aggregate. The setting is an open, partially vegetated lot surrounded by dense green trees.
    A military front-end loader is actively dumping a bucket load of dirt or sand into the bed of a military dump truck.
