Good Morning
I hope this email finds you well. The defense news site SOFREP recently published an article > accompanied by the attached
photograph. The site attributed the photo as being a "DoD release." Can you confirm whether or not this indeed
is a photo that was released by the DoD?
Thanks for your help,
Best Wishes,
