The Hazara Province by Elzie Golden 28 May 2003 Oil on canvas Depicting Special Forces soldiers patrolling in Afghanistan in 2002, this painting is based on multiple images in the Center of Military History’s archives. The technique of painting on textured canvas gives the illusion of sand permeating the soldiers’ clothing and equipment. IN THE ARTIST’S OWN WORDS In 2002, I was hand picked by BG John S. Brown to become staff artist of the Army at the Center of Military History. As staff artist, part of my duties was to produce illustrations for articles, reports and lessons learned of Army field operations, past and present. In 2002, the Army had deployed expeditionary forces in Afghanistan. . . . The Pentagon’s combat camera unit gave me permission to access their database for photos of current Afghanistan imagery. Using the few photos I downloaded, and drawing on considerable artistic license and my imagination, I “assembled” illustrations that later were used for this illustration. —ELZIE GOLDEN 17
18 IN THE ARTIST’S OWN WORDS Every job, no matter how large or small plays an essential role in completing every mission. One of the war’s most critical behind-thescenes players is the fueler. Without fuel, an essential logistical component, missions both in the air and on the ground stop dead in their tracks. As the sun rises on an airfield at Camp Anaconda in Iraq, this POL [petroleum, oils, and lubricants] specialist known as “Big Country” climbs atop of an HEMTT [heavy expanded mobility tactical truck] tanker preparing to check the fuel level. —HEATHER C. ENGLEHART Big Country by Heather C. Englehart Iraq, August 2004 Acrylic/watercolor on paper
