Summary[edit]

Description
English: Gintota, Sri Lanka (Jan. 15, 2005) - Marine Corps Sgt. Charles Burnette breaks apart a chunk of brick wall stuck in the earth at the Gintota Maha Vidyala School in Gintota, Sri Lanka. All five buildings at the school were required to be demolished after the Tsunami left their foundations weak. Marines spent one week removing debris and leveling land before working with the Sri Lankan Army to complete demolition of the school, so that a new school can be constructed. Seabees assigned to Naval Mobile Contraction Battalion Seven (NMCB-7), are attached to Marine Logistics Regiment Two, Combined Support Group Sri Lanka, and have been deployed to support disaster relief and humanitarian assistance operations in support of Operation Unified Assistance, the humanitarian operation effort in the wake of the Tsunami that struck South East Asia.
