FORT BRAGG, N.C. -- Army 1st Sgt. Reginald Parham attaches the individual first aid kit to the body armor of Air Force Lt. Col. Brett Sharp. Sergeant Parham deployed from Camp Blanding, Fla., where he trains soldiers to deploy, and Colonel Sharp deployed from Air Combat Command headquarters at Langley Air Force Base, Va. The newest body armor includes SAPI (small arms protective insert) plates not only in the front and back torso areas, but has been improved to add side SAPI plates, underarm side protection, shoulder and arm covering and full neck and groin protection. Improvised explosive devices are still the number one cause of combat fatalities in theater, and the latest protection offers the best defense available. (U.S. Air Force photo/Capt. Ken Hall)
