CHONBURI, Thailand - U.S. Navy Petty Officer 2nd Class Parker Kalasek plaints figurines with children during Cobra Gold 19 at the Child Protection and Development Center, Chon Buri, Kingdom of Thailand, Feb. 9, 2019. Many of the children here have no family, but when the [U.S.] service members visit the children they feel that they are a part of a family again, said Saichon Komjing, the manager of child care and development at Child Protection and Development Center. The children here look up to [the U.S. service members] as role models and try to be brave and strong like they are. Kalasek, a native of Middletown, Ohio, is the chaplain lead petty officer aboard USS Green Bay (LPD 20).
