Cope Tiger 2010

Capt. (Dr.) Michael Fernandez, a dentist from an Air Force Reserve unit in Guam, gives a local anesthetic to a 7-year-old Thai girl in preparation for a tooth extraction with some assistance from a Royal Thai Air Force medical technician in Nakhon Ratchasima Province, Thailand, March 4, 2010. Dr. Fernandez and approximately 500 other U.S. Air Force members are participating in Cope Tiger 2010, an annual multilateral training exercise with the Royal Thai Air Force and Army and the Republic of Singapore Air Force that includes humanitarian assistance. Exercises such as Cope Tiger build strong relationships with nations in the region and enhance interoperability as the U.S. trains side-by-side with regional military forces. Dr. Fernandez has had a private dental practice in Guam for 15 years and joined the Air Force Reserve so he could go on humanitarian missions. (U. S. Air Force photo/Capt. Christy Stravolo)
