CAMP LEMONNIER, Djibouti (Jan. 10, 2021) U.S. Navy Master-at-Arms 2nd Class Erick Machucachocho, (left) a Sailor from New York, participates in a dry-fire, small-arms familiarization training under the instruction of Gunner's Mate 1st Class Ryan Ramirez at Camp Lemonnier, Djibouti. Dry-fire is the practice of aiming the weapon and squeezing the trigger without ammunition to promote the fundamentals of accuracy and proficiency before the actual live-fire exercise. CLDJ serves as an expeditionary base for U.S. military forces providing support to ships, aircraft and personnel that ensure security throughout Europe, Africa and Southwest Asia. The base enables maritime and combat operations in the Horn of Africa while fostering positive U.S.-Africa relations. (U.S. Navy photo by Mass Communication Specialist 2nd Class Jonathan Word)
