U.S. Marine Corps Sgt. Fidel A. Berruquin, the guy with the football. Sgt Berruquin is an aviation-maintenance data specialist with Marine Medium Tiltrotor Squadron (VMM) 261. Here he is shown playing flag football during a field meet at Marine Air Station Yuma, Arizona on January 14, 2023. VMM-261 hosted a field meet to build comradery through healthy competition and exercise while deployed for Service Level Training Exercise 2-23. VMM-261 is a subordinate unit of 2nd Marine Aircraft Wing, the aviation combat of II Marine Expeditionary Force.

Our thanks to U.S. Marine Corps photographer Cpl. Caleb Stelter for providing these photos for the folks back home.

If you're looking for a great day trip for the whole family may I recommend a fun outing at the Alligator Farm & Petting Zoo in Hot Springs, Arkansas? My wife has been visiting this fun attraction since she was a little girl, we manage to get around to seeing it every couple of years or so and for the most part, it stays pretty much the same, but it's always fun to pet a baby gater.
