A young Djiboutian boy herds goats toward Soldiers with the 418th Civil Affairs Battalion Function Specialty Unit (FxSP) in a rural area outside of Dikhil, Djibouti, April 3, 2017. As part of their veterinarian assistance mission, FxSP members administered anti-parasitic medication to ward off the parasites that steal the animal’s nutrients and energy, increasing their survivability during the dry summer months.
