Marine Attack Squadron 513 airframes mechanic poses with his artwork on the AV-8B Harrier numbered 01 at Kandahar Airfield
Sgt. Edwardo Amor, a Marine Attack Squadron 513 airframes mechanic and Dallas native, poses with his artwork on the AV-8B Harrier numbered 01 at Kandahar Airfield, Afghanistan, June 19. Amor picked up an airbrush shortly before the squadron deployed and went to work, with only a practice design under his belt. I was pretty nervous because I've never airbrushed before, said Amor. It was either hit or miss. The final product now flies all over southern Afghanistan, providing close-air support to Marines and coalition forces on the ground.
