The Front Lines (25 Photos)

In wartime and peace the United States military is a constantly evolving organism, always on alert and training for the worst. Thanks to our working military photojournalists we have the privilege of viewing these unwavering sentinels in the performance of their duties.
The Front Lines brings you the most amazing photos of military personnel, history, weapons and technology. The U.S. Military is the single greatest force for freedom and stability on the planet.
From pulse-pounding combat photos and heart-warming humanitarian missions in Afghanistan to excruciating training back home, these photos capture many poignant moments with our courageous men and women in uniform.
