Project engineer supports U.S. military, diplomatic missions in Estonia

Chris Bailey grew up in Alabama and saw snow so infrequently he thought it was a Christmas miracle. As a boy, his hometown was dusted by flurries less than a handful of times. Now serving with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Europe District in Estonia, snow is a daily norm for Bailey — at least in winter months when average temperatures hover around freezing in the Baltic country. As a one-man project office, Bailey is the engineer responsible for managing more than 20 European Reassurance Initiative infrastructure and construction projects for U.S. Army and Air Force partners.

Chieftains, community member and health professionals, together with U.S. Embassy Ghana representatives cut the ribbon on a new Nutrition Rehabilitation Center in Krachi-Nkwanta, adjacent to the Nkwanta South District Hospital. The $490,000 project was funded by U.S Africa Command and managed by U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Europe District using local materials and building practices. The new center includes eight patient rooms, toilet and bathing facilities, a kitchen, four staff rooms, four storage rooms, a weighing and treatment area, reception area, and a large community room. Next to the center is a new 100-cubic-meter rainwater-harvesting cistern for rain collection and reuse.
