The world is hungry for visual storytelling, and TFB’s Photo Of The Day does its best to keep the feed live. Today we have the Spanish Heckler & Koch G36E with bayonets, the standard-issue rifle for the Spanish Army.

U.S. and Spanish leaders, service members and guests gather to celebrate the 70th Anniversary of the formal agreement signing between the Kingdom of Spain and the United States of America to establish Naval Station (NAVSTA) Rota and the critical partnership of the U.S. and Spanish Navies, a joint force that reflects the strength of the NATO alliance, Sept. 26, 2023. NAVSTA Rota is a force multiplier, capable of promptly deploying and supporting combat-ready forces through land, air and sea, enabling warfighters and their families, sustaining the fleet and fostering the U.S. and Spanish partnership.
