Lance Cpl. Sorina Langer, base operations flight clearance clerk, holds up a photo at the flight line on the Marine Corps Air Station in Yuma, Ariz., Jan. 18, 2011. The photo is of a Female Engagement Team she was a member of. Langer returned to the states Oct. 14, 2010, and came back to the air station Dec. 4, 2010, after an eight-month deployment to Marjah, Helmand Province, Afghanistan, in support of operations there. While overseas, she helped establish rapport with locals and villagers. Because males are allowed virtually no contact with Afghan females, female Marines are often cast in the role of mediator between the two.
