According to DefenseLink, “U.S. Army Staff Sgt. William Griffin, right, assigned to the 136th Combat Sustainment Support Battalion, drives a Humvee on a flooded road in Fort Ransom, N.D., April 15, 2009. Griffin and Spc. Jessica Sandberg, assigned to the 132nd Quartermaster Battalion, are making a welfare visit to a rural civilian whose home is surrounded by water.”
