5/5/11 -- TOPSHAM, Maine. U.S. Marine Lance Cpl. Brandon Sodergren or Waldoboro hugs his girlfriend, Amanda Sullivan of Durham before heading getting on the bus. Marine Reservists departed from Topsham on Thursday for the start of a year-long deployment to Afghanistan amidst a crowd of family, friends and well-wishers. This mission will be different from others, said several Marines, because instead of doing combat operations they will be teaching the Afghan National Army to operate independently. They travel first to California for several months of training and are planning to return in May 2012. Photo by Roger S. Duncan.
