SAN ANTONIO (AFPN) --  The "Week In Photos" Web feature on Air Force Link provides visitors with photos that highlight Airmen and Air Force missions around the world. 

In one photo, Maj. (Dr.) Rich Hendershot examines an infant during a visit to an El Salvadorian clinic June 14. Twenty-six Airmen assigned to the Colorado Air National Guard's 140th Medical Group were deployed to Sonsonate, El Salvador, for 10 days and treated more than 13,000 patients during their visit.

A second photo, taken during a five-day concert tour of the U.S. Central Air Forces expeditionary band "Thunder Roll," shows Staff Sgt. Joe Filipek and other members of the band feeding infants during a visit to an orphanage near Camp Lemonier, Djibouti.

A third photo features Maj. Rob Skelton, the Air Force Thunderbirds operations officer, greeting a young girl at the Salthill Air Show in Galway, Ireland, June 24. This was the first time the Thunderbirds performed over Irish soil. More than 100,000 people attended the air show.
