Photographer's Narrative

 

The President of the United States made a surprise appearance in Afghanistan to thank all the troops for their service. When taking this photograph I wanted to show how much it surprised everyone. After his speech stayed to shake every single persons hand in the audience. That meant a lot to everyone serving.
