U.S. military troops are in Thailand participating in Exercise Cobra Gold 2007. For a fitting tribute on mother’s day, service members took time out of the busy exercise and came to a local orphanage to meet with the hundreds of children there. Marine Sgt Jeremy Vought takes us to the orphanage in Pattaya that was built by Vietnam veterans and that Cobra Gold service members have been visiting for more than 25 years. Cobra Gold runs from May 8 to the 18th. Cpl Amado Pedrosa, MarForPac personnel clerk Cpl Angela Hitchcock, MarForPac combat photographer Navy Lt.
