    Service members, supporting the Army Corps FEMA mission to allow access to flooded homes in Breezy Point, N.Y., pumped an average of 750,000 to 1 million gallons of water a day in the week following Hurricane Sandy. The team, under the direction of the U.S. Army's 19th Engineer Battalion, consisted of more than 600 service members from the U.S. Army, Navy, Air Force and Marines. It worked in coordination with the local emergency responders and officials to allow access and speed recovery efforts in New York.(photo by Mary Markos, St. Louis District, public affairs).

    A flatbed trailer branded 'XTRA' is loaded with four red Baldor TS80 generators secured with yellow straps. Two workers wearing high-visibility vests and hard hats are inspecting or reviewing documents near the trailer. The scene appears to be a staging or logistics area, likely related to emergency power deployment.
    A large landfill or waste processing site with massive piles of mixed debris and refuse. Two yellow excavators — one Komatsu and one Caterpillar — are actively working to sort or move waste material. Dozens of seagulls swarm the area, scavenging among the debris under a clear blue sky.
    A U.S. Air Force servicemember in ABU (Airman Battle Uniform) is managing a large water discharge hose in a flooded, icy outdoor area. The individual is wearing rubber wading boots and a green beanie, suggesting cold weather flood control or water pumping operations. The scene appears to be a flood response or water management effort during winter conditions.
